how to correctly remove a subpackage ?

hi,

i would like to know how to remove a subpackage from the distribution.
eg. there is a package X, which is in rawhide with version 1 and has
subpackages a and b.

we have 
X-1 
X-a-1 (dependent on X and Y)
X-b-1 (dependent on X)

now the dependency Y is removed from rawhide and i create a new version
2 of package X without the dependency on Y and thus no subpackage X-a-
1.

now we have:
X-2 (which obsoletes X-a-1)
X-b-2

questions:
a) do i have to add X-a-1 to fedora-obsolete-packages?
b) is there a difference between rawhide and other branches?

the docs - at least those i found (mainly 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life#Obsoleting_Packages
)- are not too clear for me in that regard. besides: we should have a
search-engine on docs.fedoraproject.org or even better over all our
websites. google helps, but is not that great when it comes to not
track users.


yours
josef
