How can I get rid of a windows update deployment package?

We are using SCCM 2007 with a primary site server and four child sites.
I created a windows update list with a source directory and package. 
Distributed the package to my primary site server and then from a child site distributed to a long list of distribution points on the child site and three other child sites below it.

This all worked fine we used the list and package to deploy security updates and added to the list each month, automatically distributing to all sites and distribution points.

One month the distribution failed on one  child site, all the other sites and distribution points got the refreshed package no problem. (Probably caused by the backup running on that site.)

This became a permanent problem which we finally fixed by creating a new list and package.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now I'm trying to do a cleanup of the old package and partially failed distribution.
I've started by deleting the package from the primary sites distribution point.
Next from the child site where the package status is unlocked, I deleted from all the other distribution points.
The child site shows that the package distribution points have been deleted.
Unfortunately above and below the child site the package distribution points are still listed and locked.
(Looking at one of the listed distrubution points the package is on the server.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry for the big speech, does anyone know how to remove from the other distribution points and so be able to delete the package?
Any help or redirection would be great.
