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'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>
<br>
