I saw glibc-gconv-extra being installed during updates with the current
set of dependencies.

It's the first time I read about this Obsoletes: stuff.  Wouldn't it
cause deinstallation of glibc.i686 during updates that bring in
glibc-gconv-extra.x86_64?  If not, where can we find documentation how
this is supposed to work?

Thanks,
Florian
