No, nothing is as urgent as to have any kind of war with anyone, and I
am getting tired.

The old saying in OSI sais, "if you break it, you fix it", so I simply
non-urgently ask you to remove the obsoletes. And for the sake of good
will, please don't attach any strings to it.

And if you don't remove the obsoletes, nothing will happen, no war, no
anything. It will just hinder users in getting the best out of both
(and other) repos.
