True. So we probably should go with Carl's suggestion to explicitly tell

Not quite, "upgrading from PA3 is not supported, but might work (or might
not). We recommend a clean installation.". People don't like to hear
"impossible", and it isn't, just that we don't want to debug the mess it
leaves. We should also mention backing up the user data in /home/mer).
I'd leave out the "might work", just say "Upgrading from PA3 is not
officially supported" or "There is no official upgrading path form PA3
to PA4". We don't necessarily have to explicitly say "It's impossible",
but we should not encourage anyone to try it, either. It simply won't
work, and we want as few angry users as possible.
