no touch deployment, but there are too many items in assembly download cache

We would like to use no touch deployment for our in-house application
We distribute a new version weekly and the auto-updating feature seems
just the ticket for making this process easier.

The only problem is that as subsequent versions are downloaded, each
version is saved on the users' hard drives. We don't want them to
have, after about a year, 50 copies of these programs with all version
numbers.

Ideally, if there is an new version, we would like the old version to
be removed. Do the old versions expire automatically? How can we
remove them?

We don't want to make the users run "gacutil /cdl" each time.
 
I think you might want to create a setup project then, and have it remover
older versions. It's not no-touch, but it'll take care of your latest
problem.
