[Andrey Samsonov <samsonov.box@gmail.com>]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start 'emacs -Q --init-directory <DIR>', where <DIR> is directory
with only zero-sized 'init.el' file
2. M-x package-install RET mines RET
3. M-x package-install RET chess RET
4. C-h v package-selected-packages RET: Its value is (chess mines)
5. M-x package-delete RET mines RET
6. C-h v package-selected-packages RET: Its value is (chess)
7. M-x package-delete RET chess RET

Actual behavior:

8. C-h v package-selected-packages RET: Its value is (chess)

Expected behavior:

8. C-h v package-selected-packages RET: Its value is nil
