 xbps-0.16 (???):

+ * libxbps: introduce the concept of "soft replace". When a package
+   contains that boolean object set in pkg's metadata props.plist,
+   some steps will be skipped at remove time for the package being
+   replaced: its files won't be removed and the post action in REMOVE
+   file won't be executed.
+
 * libxbps: change the order in which package files are removed:

 	current: files, conf_files, links, directories.
