unacceptable

the software upgrade just have to mention the conflicting packages and 
stop until somebody enables a --force switch and in general DNF has to 
be much more verbose in case of dependency problems instead just saying 
"can't do anything because broken deps"

in the past you saw *exactly* which package requires which so-version 
and so find out where the problem starts, which packages you may 
consider to remove and then try again

currently we have some sort of blackbox with no output how to solve 
dependency problems
