Virtual packages (like git-core as provided by the git binary package)
cannot satisfy versioned dependencies.  So the description ought to
say something like:

                                                                This
 git-core package is now obsolete, and can safely be removed from the
 system if no other package depends on it.

instead.

Thanks.
