    '''
    .. versionadded:: 2017.7.3

    Ensures that a file is not present in the minion's cache, deleting it
    if found. This state is primarily invoked by other states to ensure
    that a fresh copy is fetched.

    name
        The URL of the file to be removed from cache. To remove a file from
        cache in an environment other than ``base``, either use the ``saltenv``
        argument or include the saltenv in the URL (e.g.
        ``salt://path/to/file.conf?saltenv=dev``).

        .. note::
            A list of URLs is not supported, this must be a single URL. If a
            local file is passed here, the state will take no action.

    saltenv
        Used to specify the environment from which to download a file from the
        Salt fileserver (i.e. those with ``salt://`` URL).
