You're right, my mistake.

Well, to have kde-partitionmanager removed a user should choose to install
KPMcore, at present there's nothing that automatically requires KPMcore. I
think we're in the case stated in the guidelines:
"If a package supersedes/replaces an existing package without being a
compatible enough replacement as defined in above, use only the Obsoletes from
above."
