Hi Jerome,
We have implemented deleting packages quite some time ago as this was
requested by the 3.9 release team.
Apparently, these changes have never been deployed on the
SqueakFoundation SqueakSource server (however, they are deployed on
squeaksource.com, where this change is also available).
So, the question probably is, who is reponsible for this server and
will do the upgrade?
Cheers,
Adrian

Release Meta-problems (repository woes)
Hi all,
This is from some private correspondence with Edgar.
I thought that this part of the response needed to be
brought to the attention of those responsible for this
and future releases.
A good place to follow the public thread from which
this correspondence started is:

I don't understand this. How is the "sandbox"
involved
in this problem? I.E. The problem of the wrong
file
ending up in the 310 working directory.
But I can't delete wrong files in 310 repository.
Ralph tell he can't delete
besides he have privileges to do.
So you have the power to mess things up without the
power to set things right.
That is a high order bug.
It needs to be remedied here and it needs to be noted
so future release teams don't have the same problem.
I can also see it comes from not having a proper back
up stream for the repository. It should be possible to
"turn-back-the-clock" and deal with the state of the
world before problems were generated.
Can anyone comment on what the situation is with the
release repositories and their backups (or lack there
of)
Yours in curiosity and service, --Jerome Peace
