> the upgrade gives you a chance to see the details you want. You were
prompted with these screens, including the obsolete software screen,
correct?


Correct. As I said, not good enough.


> Please be more specific about the exact changes you would like to see.

Again as I said: for every individual application that you are going to
remove that I installed manually (as opposed to it being installed as a
dependency), you have to show an individual popup screen with a very
scary warning.

THEN, if you want, there you can add a checkbox like "apply to all" or
whatever, where I can choose to accept in bulk after reviewing a list.


OR simply change the "remove obsolete packages" prompt to make it more scary, 
so I get the impression that I seriously need to review the list. 

However, if the number is actually in the order of 86, you need to make
it smaller to begin with, one way or another. Otherwise, even if I start
to look at the list seriously, chances are I'll end up missing something
or saying "well, whatever".
