+<p>Does the idea include removing srpm also?</p>
+<div class="gmail_quote">在 2011-11-30 上午2:07,&quot;nicolas vigier&quot; &lt;<a href="mailto:boklm@mars-attacks.org">boklm@mars-attacks.org</a>&gt;写道:<br type="attribution"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
+Hello,<br>
+<br>
+When a package is no longer supported, without being replaced by an<br>
+other package, and needs to be removed from the distribution, the<br>
+current procedure is :<br>
+ - move the package on svn to obsolete directory<br>
+ - ask a sysadmin to manually remove the package from repositories<br>
+<br>
+Instead of asking a sysadmin to do it, I propose that we create a<br>
+package task-obsolete, with obsoletes on all packages that need to be<br>
+removed, so that the removing of the package will be done by youri.<br>
+I think it would be better :<br>
+ - anybody with commit access can do it without asking a sysadmin<br>
+ - we can have a list and logs of packages dropped since previous Mageia<br>
+   release, which can be useful when writting release notes<br>
+ - users who don&#39;t want to keep unsupported packages installed on their<br>
+   system can install the package to remove them<br>
+<br>
+What do you think ?<br>
