Keep info on deleted databases
The lrep command (and the repositories database) do not contain any information on deleted respositories, making it hard to deterimine the repository name of a removed/deleted repository database for restoring.
But if i want to restore an old one knowing which one it was might be handy. Is it an idea to add a boolean column mounted to the repository table in the repositories database (so you have record of old ones and can restore them 'more' easily)?
Well, when you delete the repo you should leave the system in a consistent status so that the db admin can go and really remove the database…

This is true.
What we do when we remove a repo is just remove an entry from the "repositories" database so the repo is not "linked" anymore.
If you want to relink it you'd need to take a look at the database name on the db backend...
