How do I remove all unofficial packages and revert to official ones?

An Ubuntu developer asked me to perform tests on some unofficial packages. Now my system is broken and I can't get support because I have unofficial packages installed. The package did not come from a PPA. How do I remove the developer's packages and revert to using only the official repos?

I'm looking for a canonical answer that works for any package or packages because this happens a lot.
