My proposal is to do what Fedora does in its repo, for a retired package:
1) git delete all files in package, spec, patches, etc.
2) create "dead.package" file with explanation why it was retired (for
    example "Obsoleted by XXX" or "Renamed to YYY")
3) make package read-only to avoid grave digging
I have no idea what Fedora does, but this is what I was thinking about
too. Dummy repositories pointing to the right packages cost little and
may really help.

this has somehow to be linked with SPECS repo.

because i never look whether package exists, i only do ls in SPECS repo to find if package exists

technically speaking, i have cron that pulls SPECS repo, and cron that runs updatedb for that dir, and to find package i use:
$ locate -i SOMETHING | grep -i SOMETHING_MORE
