So the change is actually already being implemented without approval? This
kind of forcing facts turns the whole change policy to the absurd.
As I understand it, dropping support in Lorax affects both livemedia-creator
and livecd-creator, so the only way forward to build ISOs that actually boot
would be to fork Lorax. Unless we can reuse some other distro's tools
instead.
The liveinst part of Anaconda can be replaced with Calamares, but ISO
composing (which can be done with (livemedia-creator) or without Anaconda
(livecd-creator), but both code paths end up in Lorax eventually) is not in
the scope of Calamares.
