  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • On the Automation and Source Config plugins pages, plugins are
    listed next to a "Delete" option.  This "Delete" option will
    prompt for confirmation, and then delete the latest version of
    the plugin, leaving the older versions intact.  A reasonable
    user can be mislead into thinking that they are in fact deleting
    all versions of a plugin, and my not understand why the plugin
    does not appear to be deleted.
    

Local fix

  • Run the "Delete" action against the plugin once for each
    version.
