Hi,

This script works well http://pratik-pawar.blogspot.com/2011/05/script-to-remove-list-of-packages-from.html you should have a txt file which contains all unused packages.

In addition to the nice script that Bechir posted you could add something like:

WHERE LastRefreshTime < '2011-04-01 00:00:00.000'

This will give you as result all packages that haven't been refreshed / installed on the DP in the last year.
