aptitude does neither deletes them nor prompts me to delete them. I have a script to move the .debs from there into a local mirror, then dpkg-scanpackage creates a Packages file referencing only the most recent versions. I then archive the non-referenced debs (the replaced ones) into a directory named by date and time. Local mirror and snapshots for rollback.
