Doesn't the pdb auto-update with a script daily? If that's the case, why not just look for old ones and DELETE them from that script?The PDB is stored in a MySQL database. And old entries are normally left in the DB unless explicitly overwritten, so when a package is removed, it may not be removed from the PDB. Somebody would have to go over the DB and clean out all the old bad entries.I don't know MySQL, but couldn't the SQL request check to make sure that the package is listed in one of the current groups, before including it in the output? (Or would the overhead be too great?)
