I notice that python2-2.7.18-2 and later drop the 'obsoletes: python'
which python2-2.7.18-1 and earlier had.
This isn't right, as there's nothing in calm which memorizes that it's
seen that (nor should there be), so that obsoletes: doesn't effect later
packages, and will be forgotten when the last package containing it is
expired.
Here's a list of packages which seem to have this error (assuming the
referenced package isn't being un-obsoleted). I'll look at fixing these
on sourceware, but in future, please don't do this in these or other
packages.
