whatever fits your workflow best.

personally, i think there is value in having older versions available,
and deken tries it's best to sort newer versions before older versions
(to gently nug the user into picking the newest available one, while
still makig older versions available to them).

otoh, if your old package is completely broken or horribly buggy, there
might be little use in keeping it around.
(but then, somebody might rely on some buggy behaviour; or fixing the
bug introduces a new bug; or...)

open your browser, log in to https://puredata.info, navigate to your
package and remove it.
