I've said it before and I will repeated it here. Dnf should gain an option to 
allow erasing packages iff they are no longer available in the repos. Dnf 
system upgarde should default to this option (at least for Fedora-provided 
repos).

That way, we can stop manually tracking each retired package in articicial 
fedora-obsoletes-packages and we would not have to invent a way to "soft 
obsolete" packages. They would be automatically erased when they are removed 
from the distro AND no longer installable due to missing deps.
