[Distutils] Upgrade a package

[Sharky On PTNet]

Hi,

Every time I do an 'easy_install -U ...' for a package, it installs ok but
remain with the old package in site-packages.

Is there a way do remove old packages?

ex.:
$ ls -ltrd /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Tur*
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root 4096 2005-12-07 22:14
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/TurboGears-0.8a5-py2.4.egg
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root 4096 2005-12-17 13:13
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/TurboGears-0.9a0dev-py2.4.egg

$ ls -ltrd /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setu*
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root 4096 2005-11-24 19:08
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6a7-py2.4.egg
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root 4096 2005-12-07 21:24
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6a9dev_r41630-py2.4.egg
-rw-r--r--  1 root root   70 2005-12-07 21:24
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools.pth
