Hello,

this should not be about complaints, only some technical questions.
How is task-obsolete supposed to work as a package, i.e. what is the mechanism
used to pull it in, and then remove it again? It is required by nothing else,
so i guess
this is either pulled by urpmi/perl-urpm/rpmdrake itself.
Can sombody enlighten me about this?
AFAIK task-obsolete is pulled in by rpmsrate.
And the next step would be the question for the proper way how to disable
this mechanism as an enduser.
As root, run this command:

echo task-obsolete >> /etc/urpmi/skip.list

This will add task-obsolete into the skip list and you can use obsoleted 
software.
even easier:
rpm -e task-obsolete
