This problem involves a special blend of stupidity of and irony. You can delete a bad packaging link it was built (as seen on the distribution source package page https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jedit), but not if it never was built (as is this case https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hoary/+source/jedit). Why is it possible to delete a built package, but not one that was never (nor will ever) be built? The viewing hoary package, the page clearly knows the something is missing. If anyone can delete something that has produced an actual code, any user should be permitted to delete vapour.
