* It should suffice top say "pkg_delete bash" for * example to remove the package "bash-1.14.6" (or * was it bash-1.14-6 :-) ... Adding something like this is quite easy without adding anything else to the Makefiles, as the package names are now standardized. Everything up to the last "-" is the "class" and the rest is the version. The version numbers are pretty standardized too, but unfortunately the current rules aren't good enough to make them sort in order (in particular, 'a'/'b' which usually mean "alpha"/"beta" sort before numbers), so you can't just say "delete everything but the latest version" or "add the newest package".
