Public bug reported:

I've been testing some release upgrades from 18.04 to 20.04 and noticed
some packages were not getting removed with the following in /var/log
/dist-upgrade/main.log.

 2020-09-07 15:57:38,148 DEBUG package 'libxml-sax-expat-perl' produces an 
unwanted removal 'gnome-software-plugin-snap', skipping
 2020-09-07 15:57:40,290 DEBUG 'libxml-sax-expat-perl' scheduled for remove but 
not safe to remove, skipping
 2020-09-07 15:57:40,349 DEBUG package 'libexporter-tiny-perl' produces an 
unwanted removal 'gnome-software-plugin-snap', skipping
 2020-09-07 15:57:42,485 DEBUG 'libexporter-tiny-perl' scheduled for remove but 
not safe to remove, skipping

In Ubuntu 18.04 this package was a part of the following tasks:

Task: ubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop, ubuntustudio-desktop,
ubuntukylin-desktop, ubuntu-budgie-desktop

However, for 20.04 it is a part of the following tasks:

Task: xubuntu-desktop, ubuntustudio-desktop, ubuntu-budgie-desktop

Because the package is in main it is not a removal candidate itself but
given that it is no longer part of the ubuntu-desktop and ubuntukylin-
desktop packages it seems reasonable to add it to ForcedObsoletes but
only for those 2 metapackages.
