This is the same behaviour you see with YaST installer.  No wait --- YaST does
remove the packages depending on the old version even when it leaves other
packages on the system depending on the removed ones thus leaving the system
in an inconsistent state.

BTW, the m4 vs. autoconf bug is still present in factory tree. Seems autobuild
does not handle this dependency correctly.
