That's correct - the fact that an upload of that version was made will never be forgotten. You must increase the version number when you make a new upload (and it isn't normally necessary to delete the previous one first - just make a new upload with a higher version to replace it). -- Colin Watson (he/him) [cjwat...@canonical.com] ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users Post to : launchpad-users@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Most of the associated files (except small ones like build logs) are then garbage-collected from Launchpad after a week or so, which has happened in this case. "Deleted" does not mean "expunged from history". Nothing is pending here; the deletion is merely still recorded in the PPA's history, which is intentional. While I believe what you say, it seems some change files gets preserved, for example, the change that made me write: ofono - 1.17.bzr6912+16.04.20160314.3-1ubports0 (changes file) 2021-07-03 Deleted failed its purpose under testing, then I changed the patch, I asked the removal of the deb, and I never could re-upload it since there was a change file with different content. The only way to get to it was bumping the revision, even when there was not 2 changes. Thanks!

"Deleted" just means that it's deleted from the published archive on disk, as seen by apt. Most of the associated files (except small ones like build logs) are then garbage-collected from Launchpad after a week or so, which has happened in this case. "Deleted" does not mean "expunged from history". Nothing is pending here; the deletion is merely still recorded in the PPA's history, which is intentional. -- Colin Watson (he/him) [cjwat...@canonical.com] ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users Post to : launchpad-users@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I have a few packages that I asked to be removed, and it seems some of them got deleted, some others are still pending for a while. It involves a cron job that runs every six hours, so it can take up to that long. Thanks for sharing Colin, I'm afraid something is wrong, since in the link I provided it's possible to see the following: indicator-network - 0.8.1+ubports2 (changes file) 2021-06-19 Deleted So some packages are waiting for more than a week, being ignored.
