Description Toshiya Kobayashi 2011-11-24 09:23:56 UTC 
Version histories of a package node keep growing when you save(check in) a package. Because drools:compiledPackage tends to consume disk space, a delete method for package node version histories is desired.

This is a feature request, not a bug. But I've set the Severity to 'high' as there is no good workaround for it.

The official supported workaround is 'Export repository as xml and import it to BRMS with clean database'. But this will remove version histories of ALL nodes.

The other way is writing your own tool to delete version histories of a package node. But using Drools internal APIs and Jackrabbit APIs is out of support scope.
