from the debian-italian ML (you need the new apt, with supercow powers):
apt-get install `awk 'BEGIN {RS="\n\n+"} ; /Version: .*helix.*/ { print $2 "/unstable" }' /var/lib/dpkg/status`
this was to remove helix packages, modify it for ximian. or you can use
the awk part to just list all the packages and purge them
