Are such things also announced separately on some user list ? |

The problem I see: from the view of an common user (who's not |
10 |
reading the dev lists) packages they're using suddenly disappear. |
11 |
They don't have time to handle it properly. |

There should be an additional flagging (ie. scheduled for masking |
14 |
or removal), maybe such flags could be put into an separate |
15 |
database (ie. some textfile available via web or rsync). |
16 |
|
17 |
An tool could check if the current system has some of those |
18 |
scheduled packages installed. |
