There are two likely possible scenarios. Which one happens depends mostly on whether a service like "ursa-major" [1] (or equivalent) is implemented by release engineering. 1. Without ursa-major: - orphaned packages won't be auto-retired by releng as too many things still build-depend on them - non-modular packages will rot without maintenance, with provenpackagers occasionally fixing most serious issues - buildroots and user systems will see different package sets (users will get maintained packages from modules, buildroots will keep using old, unmaintained packages) - users will have to disable modular repos in order to be able to install old non-modular packages that are used in buildroots 2. With ursa-major: - packages will be retired by myself - there will be only one package set - modular - buildroots will use the same package sets as available to users - users will be able to install build-dependencies from modular repos enabled in the system by default - module-unaware software (such as mock) will be able to use koji repos (or new kind of buildroot compose) to install packages from [1] https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7840 > > On Mon, Sep 24, 2018, 13:11 Mikolaj Izdebski <mizde...@redhat.com> wrote: > >> TL;DR I am planning to orphan Java packages listed below soon after >> Fedora 29 GA.
