Wolfram, I tried to reproduce your issue and I managed to get the ISE. Unfortunately the traceback in catalina.log was slightly different.

I fixed the issue I saw with ...

spacewalk.git: e6ac23b6b9bb3d0f5bbd570672d5037bd167db5c

It may (but must not) fix your issue as well.

If you would let me know, what kind of package action is the one you cannot delete, I'll try to reproduce it again.

Otherwise I'm switching the BZ to MODIFIED.

I tried to delete an archived package install.

Package install is covered by the fix.
Thank you.
