If anybody still uses Upstart, then he probably has his own upstart jobs
defined. In such case automatic replacement is not a good idea.

What I propose will just get rid of upstart packages for most of PLD
users – those, who don't use it. For the few who might be using Poldek
will report conflicts, which should be manually resolved. This seems
safer and cleaner (no fake 'upstart' package or bogus 'obsoletes'
somewhere else) to me.
