There seems to be a problem with the status of the old package versions
that need to be deleted.
For example, today I had four upgradable packages: helm, helm-core,
magit, and async. I hit U and x and got:
| Package `async' installed.
| Package `helm-20230210.1800' deleted.
| Error trying to delete `helm-core-20230210.1955': (error "Package
`helm-core-20230210.1955' is used by `helm-git-grep' as dependency, not
deleting")
| Package `magit-20230215.1054' deleted.
| Package `async-20230130.1815' deleted.
Here are the respective calls to `package-desc-status':

| 1 <- package-desc-status: "obsolete"
As you see, for the package causing the error (helm-core) the return
value was "installed" instead of the expected "obsolete". As a
consequence, `package--used-elsewhere-p' returns non-nil and leads to
the error I get: the system thinks the package can't be removed because
it is a dependency.
So we need to find out why packages sometimes don't get the expected
"obsolete" status assigned when upgrading.
