I don't think that "obsolete" or "outdated" means the same thing here.
While the AUR is a collection of build-scripts that might fall behind an
upstream source, I was thinking more of packages that have been
"obsoleted" by upstream changes, or by other packages (think of Avy
vs. ace-jump, where I think the consensus is that Avy has superseded
ace-jump).
