25 +# In Linux ~4.18, IPX (Internetwork Packet eXchange) protocol and
26 +# NCPFS (NetWare Core Protocol Filesystem) support was removed due
27 +# to lack of maintenance. Due to both being dead from a technology
28 +# standpoint and lack of any upstream activity, mask the below
29 +# packages and remove in 75 days.
