Poetry remove doesn't remove package

• I am on the latest Poetry version.
• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

• OS version and name: GNU/Linux 4.18.7-1-default, openSUSE Tumbleweed
• Poetry version: Poetry 0.11.5
• Link of a Gist with the contents of your pyproject.toml file: https://gist.github.com/rominf/a3f70219b49becc287d167761ea887d0

I have kg library as git dependency. I remove it with poetry remove kg but nothing happens:

$ poetry remove kg

Say several developers work on a project. One performs an update which removes a package from the pyproject and lock files. How will the other developers ever remove this package?

For anyone stumbling across this thread, it looks as though poetry install --remove-untracked would do the trick here.

This is very important and I don’t know of any way to do this.
