Describe the feature request
Flag deprecated package versions in the solver rejection messages
Additional context
Here I've followed the head.hackage instructions;
I was wondering why
Cabal-1.24.1.0
was shown at the end of the list when all the other versions are sorted in order of version. Turns out this version is deprecated. The solver must know this. Could we show the list sorted by version but some kind of note about deprecations, like hackage does (using colour)?#9522 and #8863 are related.
