This read-only enumeration reports the status of removing (deleting) a previously installed package from this network element, another phase in this MIB's overall package-lifecycle management alongside install and commit. Admins use it to confirm that a package they intended to remove was actually cleaned up successfully. For example, a package with deleteStatus stuck at phaseStarted well past when the deletion should have finished suggests the removal process has hung and the element may still be carrying remnants of the package.
