Unfortunately, I think Simon's response to me is definitive.
Ultimately if the old package exists, it will continue to satisfy
dependencies.
That's exactly what we don't want in the time_t transition.

I think we might revisit this when we come to a discussion of how our
tools could provide us more flexibility to make issues like usrmerge and
time_t transition easier in the future.
