        I think I've proposed at least once that we make Obsoletes: for retired
packages mandatory. My last proposal currently seems to be assigned to
tibbs.

      
      IMHO, forcefully removing packages that still work is a major disservice to 
our users and should never be done.

    I agree with this.  Ubuntu did that when I used it every time I
    tried to upgrade and I hated it.  I don't think we should follow
    that behaviour.
