Assuming a system that is automatically updating, but doesn't get upgraded to the next fedora release - a system like this needs to degrade progressively but securely: after thirteen months GUI applications are unsupported and are actively removed by dnf updates; after four years network servers are unsupported, shut down and removed; after seven years sshd is removed, default runlevel set to 1; after ten years runlevel is set to zero. This is how you allow longer term support for server applications, without supporting old GUI software, and without leaving zombie machines (and virtual machines) laying around on the net causing trouble. This would be responsible lifecycle management. -- Bruno _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
