- fix --auto-select skipping some packages because of other packages providing

  a more recent version, but no obsolete between those packages.
  the fix is to revert commit from Aug 2002:
    "fixed propable old package (according provides) requested by
     request_packages_to_upgrade."

hopefully this change won't break too much...

for the record, a few issues:
- skipping java-1.5.0-gcj-1.5.0.0-14.7mdv2008.0.i586 since java-1.7.0-icedtea-1.7.0.0-1.3mdv2008.0.i586 provides a more recent version of jre (1.7.0 vs 1.5.0)
- skipping emacs-common-22.1-2mdv2008.0.i586 since gnus-emacs-5.10.8-1mdv2007.0.noarch provides a more recent vers
whereas java-1.5.0-gcj-1.5.0.0-14.6mdv and emacs-common-22.1-1mdv are installed
