PPA purged successfully using aptitude fallback
J'ai le même problème, je crois que les paquets inexistant dans les dépôts officiels ne sont pas supprimés.
La suppressions des paquets concernent uniquement ceux déjà présent dans les dépôts présent après une installation du système. Cela permet une restauration des paquets.
Est il possible aussi d'ajouter une option pour forcer la suppressions des PPA pour effectuer un nettoyage des sources. Par exemple
sudo ppa-purge --remove ppa:yannubuntu/ boot-repair
Pour supprimer : sources. list.d/ yannubuntu- boot-repair- oneiric. list sources. list.d/ yannubuntu- boot-repair- oneiric. list.save
/etc/apt/
/etc/apt/

I have the same problem, I think the packages does not exist in the official repositories are not deleted.
The cuts affect only those packets already present in the repositories after installation of this system. This allows a recovery package.
It is also possible to add an option to force the deletion of APP to perform cleanup of sources. for example
sudo ppa-purge --remove ppa:yannubuntu/ boot-repair
to delete : sources. list.d/ yannubuntu- boot-repair- oneiric. list sources. list.d/ yannubuntu- boot-repair- oneiric. list.save
/etc/apt/
/etc/apt/
