In this case, all of the are versioned as uploads to unstable or exp, but we
need care to not drop ones meant for bpo, stable, oldstable, that new
not-named-volatile thingy being discussed, and so on.

On the other hand, an upload targetted at experimental might be obsolete
despite being newer than the version in unstable.

For the above reason, it's safer to not prune things too aggressively.
