Hi,

I'm wondering what's the best way to pick invalid package names from a
package list.

I am keeping a package list of my installed packages, but over the time,
package can be retired, obsoleted, or simple increase in version in its
name. I just want to pick out all those invalid ones.

Thanks

How are you creating that list?
