"apt policy bunsen-*" reports obsolete packages

Hi!

I discovered that command "apt policy bunsen-*" on Boron pc, reports obsolete packages.

It is
bunsen-exit-python
bunsen-images-extra
bunsen-lock
bunsen-user-setup

Those packages is mentioned as conflicting in pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian/dists/[version]/main/binary-[arch]/Packages.gz.
As they no longer is available in Bunsen repo, the should be removed from Packages.gz.

I have only checked Beryllium and Boron.

Re: "apt policy bunsen-*" reports obsolete packages

The package list files in the repository are generated automatically by the reprepro software when packages are added to or removed from the repository. The "Conflicts" references are there because users might be upgrading an old system when those packages were present, or even installed, and will help ensure a smooth upgrade process.

I don't think there is any bug here.
