I rewrote kickstart support for FC5, trying to preserve compatibility
throughout.  It was a whole lot of code, so there are some mistakes.
I've corrected several of these, but there are probably still a couple
more.  If you find anything that used to work in FC4 but does not work
any longer in FC5, please file a bug against pykickstart.

Additionally, I have marked certain commands and options as deprecated.
If these are used, they will put a DeprecationWarning into your
anaconda.log file.  Please check this file at some point and make sure
you're not doing anything that's been deprecated, as these will be
removed in the future.  Where I found that I wanted to change syntax in
the future, this is what I've done.  Your old files should still be
working.  Anything else is a bug.
