Comment 2 for bug 160412

Right, certainly removed packages are not lost in our data model, we simple don't show them in the UI. Once we allow package browsing to include removed packages (where the users could download them) the need of a special component/pocket will become obsolete (it is already controversial). I will keep this report as a triaged bug for 1.1.12, at that point we will have time to actually look and hopefully fix it.
