Homebrew seems to install new versions side by side with old versions when upgrading outdated versions (brew upgrade), at least I have a bunch of packages with multiple versions. How do I ensure that old versions are removed and not kept around when upgrading?

Is there support for auto-removal of outdated versions at all?

brew cleanup is your friend for this. Check out the answer I gave in a related question here.

brew install in and of itself doesn't appear to have options for this. This might be a useful feature so I requested it from the publisher.
