We have specific issues during an Fedora upgrade.

In past, it was issue with rdma-core [1] during upgrade to F34. Nowadays, for 
upgrade to F36, we have an issue with lilv [2]

Both issues happens, in generall, when you have multilib package A-1.0.i686 and A-1.0.x86_64 which is going to be upgraded to A-2.0.noarch.

We have package `fedora-obsolete-packages` for obsoleting problematic packages. But this package is noarch. And obviously noarch package cannot obsolete multilib package.

I am not aware of any trick that can solve this on rpm level - if you know, 
please comment in BZ [2].

I think this can be solved by introducing new package which will work like `fedora-obsolete-packages`, but will not be arch. I.e. we will have version for specific architecture and we can obsolete architecture specific packages.

Comments? Ideas?
