Such packages ought to be obsoleted by something - if nothing else, by
fedora-obsolete-packages . You can file a bug or PR asking for it to be
added there.

This is likely because it defaults to `--allowerasing` behaviour? This
is kinda a controversial topic. GNOME Software also does this, and I
don't *love* it as it can result in people being surprised by packages
having disappeared on upgrade. ('allowerasing' means, basically, if a
package like this is blocking the transaction, just remove it).
