def absent(name, **kwargs):
    '''
    This function deletes the specified repo on the system, if it exists. It
    is essentially a wrapper around pkg.del_repo.

    name
        The name of the package repo, as it would be referred to when running
        the regular package manager commands.

    **UBUNTU-SPECIFIC OPTIONS**

    ppa
        On Ubuntu, you can take advantage of Personal Package Archives on
        Launchpad simply by specifying the user and archive name.

        .. code-block:: yaml

            logstash-ppa:
              pkgrepo.absent:
                - ppa: wolfnet/logstash

    ppa_auth
        For Ubuntu PPAs there can be private PPAs that require authentication
        to access. For these PPAs the username/password can be specified.  This
        is required for matching if the name format uses the ``ppa:`` specifier
        and is private (requires username/password to access, which is encoded
        in the URI).

        .. code-block:: yaml

            logstash-ppa:
              pkgrepo.absent:
                - ppa: wolfnet/logstash
                - ppa_auth: username:password

    keyid
        If passed, then the GPG key corresponding to the passed KeyID will also
        be removed.

    keyid_ppa : False
        If set to ``True``, the GPG key's ID will be looked up from
        ppa.launchpad.net and removed, and the ``keyid`` argument will be
        ignored.

        .. note::
            This option will be disregarded unless the ``ppa`` argument is
            present.
