Ah, then I have misunderstood something at some point. Now I'm not sure
if this is worth doing I'd rather use a more generic heuristic (package
no longer available, user hasn't used the program for a long time)
rather than specific replacement pairs. If we decide to do this, it'd be
easy enough to adapt my code: check if both oldpkg and newpkg are
installed and if so delete oldpkg.

Or should we have a more stringent check for whether the user prefers
Empathy? How would we do that?

(Personally, if I had been using Pidgin for years, I wouldn't like it to
be suggested for removal until I had well and truly switched, and that
might take a long time.)
