How do I retire a Julia package (@tkelman)? This is about EasyPkg - I never really updated it for Julia v0.5, let alone for v0.6 - I don’t see a need for it any longer. It it possible to limit it to v0.4 or so?

Thanks, @kristoffer.carlsson! (I wasn’t sure whether using an upper bound was the “official” way for this.)
