Received Several answers, of which two people had experience in removing
entire patchkits. Best solution seems to be either of those two :
- restore backup you should have made before installing new patchkit
- remove all patches (with dupatch) and reinstall patchkit you want.

ORIGINAL QUESTION:
> Hi Managers,
>
> We have some 4.0F systems with Patchkits 1 and 5 installed. We now would
> like to remove all patches that were installed with PK5, so we would like
> a
> system (temporarily) with 4.0-F and PK1.

> If I understand correctly from earlier postings in the mailinglist and in
> the dupatch documentation you cannot remove all patches from a certain
> patchkit. To get back to an earlier patchkit you have to options:
> 1. remove all patches and re-install patchkit you want (in our case PK1)
> 2. remove all patches by selecting all the Patches ID numbers from the
> dupatch patch deletion menu. (This seems like quite a lot of work).

> Does any of you has a suggestion on what option to use based on
