localrepository

In my local repository each time i update the packages inside.

The problem is:

I have many versions of the same package. so, i need to delete the old versions in some way.(don't tell me to do it manually!!)

Any ideas?!!

Maybe a script that checks the version of each package keeping the newer version and deletind older ones can solve this issue.

I am seeking for such script or if some software is founded would be great

UPDATE:

See this for how to make a local repository
