When I recently looked through the AUR source, it seemed to me that when a package is deleted, a record is only removed from the `Packages` table and that there is data for the corresponding package still in `CommentNotify`, `PackageComments`, `PackageContents`, `PackageSources` and `PackageVotes`.
Does this orphan data get deleted by another mechanism I haven't seen? If not, could I send patches that do a better job of cleaning it up?
Foreign key constraints in the database schema should take care of removing the relevant data from the other tables when a record is removed from the `Packages` table. Regards, Jason
