Recently, after a lot of apt-get dist-upgrade, I noticed that my 
/var/cache/apt/archive had many copies of the same packages. 
So, I tried a man apt-get and found the option clean. I tried it but it removed 
everything.
I just want it to remove the old packages, keeping the most recent in their 
place.
is there a way to do this ?

I have to give my cache to a friend but dpkg-scanpackage puts in his package 
file the most expired package, which isn't good if he wants to do a apt-get 
upgrade...
