And babel_install too.

Based on yours and David's comments, it sounds like I would copy these manifests over to RE:

slim_install.p5m
server_install.p5m
auto_install.p5m

I won't do anything with them, but will add these 3 lines to the RE incorporation manifest:

depend [email protected] type=incorporate
depend [email protected] type=incorporate
depend [email protected] type=incorporate

Is that correct?

I'm not convinced. If these are obsolete and will never be changed or
touched, I don't know what the benefit would be to now adding them to the RE consolidation, since they already exist in the S11 release repository
as part of the IPS consolidation.
The only reason to keep old manifests around is if you think you'll need to republish them for some reason. I don't really see the reason for keeping
these around anymore, either.  You'll just need to be sure to keep
incorporating them. ON's gotten rid of a ton of old manifests, as part of

7144760 OS/Net can stop redelivering defunct packages from prior to S11

but there's a manifest that keeps a record of the old names, as
dependencies on the versions where they got renamed or obsoleted, so that
we keep incorporating them at that rev.  You'll need to do the same.
(Where by "need", the need isn't huge, since all that would happen if
someone installed an old version would be that they'd get some packages
installed on their system; there aren't any conflicts to worry about.
Still, for neatness' sake ...)
