Thanks for your work on this. Sorry I missed the cutoff :)
Behavior -------- In the simple case, where a package is obsoleted without an associated rename, and nothing on the system depends on it, the package will be uninstalled on upgrade, and on initial install will emit a message, but not fail the installation.
Since an upgrade on an obsoleted package has an opposite action (ie. uninstall) compared to a normal package, shouldn't the user be warned and/or a confirmation be required at least during individual pkg install operations ie. non-image-update requests)?
