Just takel down the tracker for the old version. each 'update notice' would have the dot torrent file for the current seed, not the old one

(that would still leave the trackerless method, but they still need the 'torrent' file to use that)

BTW the seed could be the complete set of versions. those in the know, know how to pull a subset of the torrent if they care)
