13 Correct, and to name an example, pm-utils is still using the old
14 wireless stack and
15 'wireless-utils' instead of 'iw'
16 As in, pm-utils is using kernel options that are marked as DEPRECATED in the
17 menuconfig, and DEPRECATED means they are going away at some point
18 So it won't be long the package is broken for every machine that has
19 wireless
20 card
21 I'm sure there are multiple other examples available, but this one pops
22 up to
23 mind immediately
