A 'deprecation' message implies that the functionality continues to work, but the user gets a warning that its going away. In this case the user gets a warning, and the functionality is unusable - qemu-img just exits immediately. This isn't deprecation in any normal sense, it is just immediate feature removal with an message telling you it has already been deleted :-( Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
