Well, that dialog wouldn't win the prize for "the most intelligent part
of the installation", it's rather a bit dumb. It could be actually
extended to inform users that they seem to had been using (previously
enabled) repositories that are currently disabled and how to enable them
or why (dropping not maintained packages by default).

Additionally it could check the paths of "enabled" repositories and warn
users if they were going to use old paths (such as 10.2 for 10.3, resp.
10.3 for 11.0). This seems to be worth a feature request.

Does it make sense? It's a bit tricky to get the "current" version of a
product just being installed, but it's not impossible ;)
