---------------------------------------
Thanks [~teofili] for looking at this!
Commit in
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sling/trunk@1781568
The patch enable a periodical (every 60 seconds by default, configurable) task
({{o.a.s.d.p.i.ResourceDistributionPackageCleanup}}) to run and delete the
package which have been released explicitly and which have no more references.
Only the
{{org.apache.sling.distribution.packaging.impl.ResourceDistributionPackage}}
(packages stored in the repository) are collected that way, the behaviour for
other packages (e.g. stored in files) is not changed.
> Concurrency issue can prevent repository packages to be cleaned up

>
> In SCD setups with more than one export queue and storing packages in the
> repository, packages may not be collected after being distributed to all
> queues.
> This is typically the case on the author instance of a Sync setup.
> The current implementation [0] stores a resource in the repository in order
> to keep track of each consumer of the package. When each consumer is done
> distributing to its queue, it checks if there is no more registered resources
> and remove the package if it is the case.
> The problem is that consumers run concurrently and without synchronisation,
> thus leading to situation where all consumers concurrently observe remaining
> consumers and the cleanup is never executed.
