I specifically added this feature because we get a *lot* of crash
reports which happened on packages which are out of date. The big
problem is that this often means that these crashes cannot be 'retraced'
any more, i. e. we cannot get a symbolic stack trace because we do not
have the old package versions and their debug symbols any more.
So even if you only have an outdated library which is not directly
responsible for the crash, there is still little value for us to get
those crash reports. We should prevent users from uploading tons of data
in vain.
