However the functionality is very useful (esp with rawhide) - and is
not depreciated. The option is depreicated in favor of a different way
of specifying it - perhaps 'yum --obsoletes=1 update'

For me, all the redhat-config -> system-config ; XFree86 -> xorg-x11 changes
were handled properly by it.
