Would it be a good idea to have an interactive prompt from the package
manager?
I'm thinking perhaps a few different types:
* One might start appearing, say, 30 days before it becomes end-of-life. With
each new version during that time there would be a message with an "OK"
button. Is that a good amount of time?
* The very last kernel version would say it has reached end-of-life and is no
longer supported.
But: This depends on people applying updates timely; I've heard of some that
don't. If they don't apply updates within that 30 day window they'd miss it.
And, once an version has reached end-of-life I usually remove it after a week
or 2 to keep the APT repository small, so people could miss the last version
entirely if they don't update before I remove it. Also, you can tell the
package manager to now show interactive prompts.
Thoughts? Ideas?
