Remove All Files / Packages From The Previous Plesk Obsidian Release(s) As Part Of Plesk's Upgrade Process
As per the title. When any Plesk Obsidian release is upgraded to the next release, many files and/or packages are simply left in place and not removed as part of the Plesk installation process. Without patient and time-consuming manual "clean-up" exercises, all of these now unused and non-functional files and/or packages, simply accumulate and (just like garden weeds do in the real world) take up useful and valuable server real estate, but for no purpose. It's a little surprising that this is still happening, when nearly all software packages provide this as a default action.
Thank you for your suggestion. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it is popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

This is important because outdated binaries might sooner or later turn out to have security problems, and leaving those around aside the fixed ones could be exploited.
