That's what the 'deprecated' [1][2] file in profiles is for. I don't |
| 18 |
see a reason to duplicate it in a news item for gcc2 and vserver profiles: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
- The profile is hardly the least of problem for using gcc2, the rest of |
| 21 |
the tree haven't been buildable with it for a long time. So I'm pretty |
| 22 |
sure this hits 0 users. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
- baselayout-vserver had been masked since 2009 with a message telling |
| 25 |
users to move away from it, so this should also hit 0 users. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
But you might be right for Kernel 2.4, that duplication might be worth |
| 28 |
it, but as it's not going to get removed yet... We'll just see about |
| 29 |
that later on. |
