There is no direct way to do it.
You should do the following steps:
^ get the table schema
      (you may use pg_dump for this)
^ create a temporary table with the same schema
      (just modify the table name)
^ copy the content of the original table to temporary table except the
deprecated column
^ drop the original table
^ rename the temporary table
^ (optional) run pg_dump again to check
     if everything is in the correct place
