</I>&gt;<i> &gt; - people who don't want to remove unsupported packages don't install
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;   task-obsolete
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; This will also make urpmi/rpmdrake warn before removing packages,
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; instead of silently removing them.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> This would also be removing all obsoleted/unsupported packages
</I>&gt;<i> or none of them....

It's already the case with Obsoletes.
