Remove package components after updating component

Question

Hi,  
  
my greengrass custom component is a docker container hosted on S3.  
  
After I update a version of one of my custom components, I noticed that the previous component is lingering here,  
  
/greengrass/v2/packages/artifacts/my_component/old_version  
  
is this expected behaviour?   
  
Since this is a large docker container (~few gigs) after a few updates I will run out of space on my device.  
  
I'm using greengrass 2.4.0.  
  
Thanks for the help in advance!

Answer

Hi everyone, I solved my own problem:  
  
I added this line to my component manifest:  
  
  "Install": {  
    "RequiresPrivilege": true,  
    "script": "docker load -i {artifacts:path}/my_package.tar; rm {artifacts:path}/my_package.tar"  
  },
