There are packaging problems not being reported by the automatic rawhide report.
The Obsoletes tag is supposed to take care of this removal or upgrades may not
work correctly. Not sure if there's a way to automatically detect that Obsolete
tags are not covering everything they need to.

I'm using x86_64, not sure if that makes a difference.

So...what Obsoleted it?
