a question about "svn del"

Hi:

I have been using subversion for several years. One thing I don't
really understand is "svn del":

In my local area, if I want to delete a directory:

svn del junk_dir

svn commit junk_dir -m "deleted it"

Now, if another person(or me in another computer) updated his local
area, junk_dir is still in his local area, but not versioned. However,
*sometimes* I saw junk_dir is completely deleted in the local area by
svn during update. So the puzzle in my mind is why sometimes junk_dir
still in another person's local, but unversioned and sometimes
automatically deleted in his local area.

Thank you very much.
