"auto-package-delete-old-versions t" tries to delete from /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp

[jaqx0r]

I just turned this on, and got a message like:

Error (use-package): auto-package-update/:config: Removing old name: Permission denied, /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/elpa/pod-mode-1.3/Install.log.gz

in Warnings at startup.

My config is

(use-package auto-package-update
  :ensure t
  :config
  (setq auto-package-update-delete-old-versions t
        auto-package-update-interval 4)
  (auto-package-update-maybe))

I think this package came from the Debian installation, so I'm happy for auto-package-update to leave it alone and let the system package manager delete it when it chooses to.
