This makes me wonder if we should (or do?) have a mechanism to remove
a package which is not used. "used" in the sense of being used by any
account on the system, rather than in the dependency sense. If we had
that we'd only need to keep the background packages installed that
some user has configured for their desktop.
But wouldn't it be possible to add Version: and Release: tags to each
subpackage so those old version numbers don't change? (I guess
%{dist} would still be a problem though ...)
