We have no plan to support this.
If the directory becomes huge, you can clean it by yourself.

Surely that's difficult... Sorry.

[suzuki-shunsuke]

No problem. Thank you for your proposal.

Perhaps a command like aqua cleanup, which can reset the environment in one operation, might be more useful.

I'm reconsidering this feature.
If we aim to enable to delete packages flexibly, the command usage, specification, and implementation will get complicated.
This is not desirable for both users and maintainers.

Even if you remove packages, Lazy Install will reinstall them when they are necessary, so we don't need to support deleting packages so flexibly.

So I'm thinking the simple features like the following.

$ aqua rm --all # Delete all packages (delete `pkgs` but keep `bin`)
$ aqua rm [<registry name>,]<package name> [...] # Delete given packages (delete all versions)
$ aqua rm --command [-c] <command name> # Delete packages with the given command (delete all versions)

About packages, aqua refers registries in aqua.yaml. Even if they aren't used in packages aqua can remove them.
About command, aqua refers packages in aqua.yaml.

rm command doesn't edit aqua.yaml, which means it doesn't remove packages from packages in aqua.yaml.
It also doesn't remove symbolic links from the bin directory.

You may want to keep the latest version and delete only old versions, but we don't support it now.
Lazy Install will reinstall the latest version.
