Hello,

I’m using the latest version of the convox client and server:

```auto
$ convox version
client: 20191120232059
server: 20191120232059 (console.convox.com)

```

`convox registries remove` has no effect:

```auto
$ convox registries
SERVER USERNAME
https://index.docker.io/v1/ ndbroadbent

$ convox registries remove "index.docker.io/v1/"
Removing registry... OK

$ convox registries
SERVER USERNAME
https://index.docker.io/v1/ ndbroadbent

```

Rack logs:

```auto
id=c4adbefb037c ns=api at=RegistryRemove method="DELETE" path="/registries/index.docker.io/v1/" response=200 elapsed=61.986
id=ffe2d75890b0 ns=api at=RegistryList method="GET" path="/registries" response=200 elapsed=103.518

```

This is also blocking my production deploys because I can’t authenticate with this registry:

```auto
$ convox deploy
Packaging source... OK
Uploading source... OK
Starting build... OK
Authenticating 691950705664.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com: Login Succeeded
Authenticating https://index.docker.io/v1/: Error response from daemon: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: unauthorized: incorrect username or password
ERROR: exit status 1
ERROR: build failed

```

This is for a rack that I created 2 years ago, so maybe there is some corrupt data that wasn’t migrated properly:

```auto
$ convox rack releases
VERSION UPDATED
20191120232059 19 minutes ago
20190522175056 5 months ago
...
20180308185456 2 years ago
20180307152136 2 years ago

```

I think this deploy error started happening because I changed my Docker Hub password. As a workaround, I was able to change my password back to the old password:

```auto
Packaging source... OK
Uploading source... OK
Starting build... OK
Authenticating 691950705664.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com: Login Succeeded
Authenticating https://index.docker.io/v1/: Login Succeeded

```

But I’m not actually using any docker images on `https://index.docker.io/v1/`, so I’d really like to remove it.
