Well, what was formerly known as kdebase was split into 2:
kdebase-workspace
kdebase
The former includes the Obsoletes: kdebase < 4 since it contains what now
constitutes what is the main part of the kde(4) desktop.

The alternative was to allow upgrades miss kdebase-workspace, which would be
much worse.

That is, unless there's some other better solution to this issue.  I'm open
to ideas and suggestions.
