12 The pkg-purge command removes the package directory and archive from
13 the filesystem and removes the package from the configuration. Only
14 packages in the fetched and unpacked state (bpkg-pkg-status(1)) can be
15 purged plus broken packages if the --force|-f option is specified (see
16 the option's description for details on purging broken packages). If
17 the --keep|-k option is specified, then the package archive is not re‐
18 moved (see the option's description for details on this mode).

23 still retained in the configuration's database in the fetched

28 package directory and archive no longer exist and then remove
29 the package from the configuration.
