Packages are no longer maintained in that folder. The only viable item in /Library/Receipts/ should be the InstallHistory.plist file. All previous packages should be gone from there. The bom and plist files associated with installations are now stored in /var/db/receipts/. Contact FCP for details on what to remove from there.
