Usually obsoleted packages are automatically deleted by rpm at the time the
obsoleting packages gets installed. That's why no dedicated delete request is
generated for obsoleted packages. But in case a package is obsoleted by
patterns only, an explicit delete request is needed.
Don't know if it's easy to fix.

A workaround could be to have a dedicated rpm package associated with each
pattern; e.g.:
pattern:GNUstep_G2 <--> pattern-GNUstep_G2.rpm
Each pattern would require it's pattern- package.
The pattern- package would contain the obsoletes formerly included in the
pattern. It would also obsolete the other pattern- packages.
This way installing the pattern -> installs the dedicated pattern- package ->
this would actually execute the obsoletes.
