2.14 The losetup(8) '-s' option (introduced by util-linux-ng-2.13) is deprecated
2.21 The udev compatible output (-o udev) from blkid(8) is deprecated.
2.25 The "swapon --summary" output format is deprecated ...
... and many warnings about commands (mkfs, tailf, mount, last, ...) and
features (cryptoloop).
The command line options are our API, we don't do such changes often.
I remember only one exception -- sfdisk, after rewrite some obscure
DOS-era options have been removed.
