OK but clean it out of
$ apt-cache showpkg mime-codecs
Reverse Depends:
  vm,mime-codecs
  mgetty-fax,mime-codecs

Regarding obsolete package detection for the average user:
I want a "vrms" like command line for anacron that will send me a list
of Obsolete and Locally Created Package by mail each month and
distinguish the ones made by dpkg-repack and the ones that silently
disappeared from sid.
I don't want to use a GUI like synaptic or the scary to me aptitude
GUI.
OK, maybe I will try in anacron
  apt-show-versions|sort >/tmp/apt-show-versions
  for i in /unknown 'newer than version in archive' \
  'No available version in archive'; do echo; echo ======$i;\
  fgrep "$i" /tmp/apt-show-versions; done
