After an upgrade I typically expect the system and packages to be supported and maintained in the same way as if I installed new. And if I need some package that is no longer in Fedora, I will build it for my personal or organizational use and accept the additional support burden explicitly and not by accident (and I often start by leveraging the old .src rpms from Fedora). FD: I spend time after every upgrade to remove old retired packages, and not having to doing so would make life easier. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
