The easy way is to just bump the version number of package in your 
config.local.

The proper way is to remove the package from the repo. You would 
normally do this with:

reprepro -b <$BASEDIR> removesrc deltah <package>
reprepro -b <$BASEDIR> removesrc deltah-updates <package>
reprepro -b <$BASEDIR> removesrc deltah-security <package>
reprepro -b <$BASEDIR> removesrc deltah-backports <package>

If you've already manually deleted the files then the reprepro database 
is in an inconsistent state and you have to use a lower level operation.

reprepro -b <$BASEDIR> _listmd5sums | grep "/apt/"

That outputs a list of paths. For each of those files that no longer 
exist run:

reprepro -b <$BASEDIR> _forget <path>
