On the way home I thought "markdrop" would be a good fit for what we want to express.
One takeaway from the RPM summit was the difficulties people have with new names, e.g. our weak dependencies.
So I'd strongly suggest to use well-known operations like 'erase' (rpm), 'remove' (yum), or 'obsolete' (rpm).
Do you understand the problem? rpm isn't doing the distribution upgrade.
Coolo, its about people trying to grasp the semantics of your invented names. 'weakremover' is acceptable since it picks up the 'remove' name from yum, but people will have a hard time with 'markdrop'.
