It seems to be agreed that removal could be performed ad-hoc and directly on the DB for now.

The procedure consists of:

 * Move the PUBLISHED records in a given suite (DR/DAR & POCKET) to SUPERSEDED, i.e., it's is possible to remove only warty and keep warty-security if required.

 * Run 'process-death-row' (already part of the cron.daily)

All not-used superseded packages will be marked as PENDINGREMOVAL and will be deleted in 24 hours.

This procedure is under test in dogfood instance.
