Description Stanislav Zidek 2021-12-21 10:40:25 UTC

Description of problem:

We want to remove old RHEL-7 libcrypt.so.1 in RHEL 10, we'd like to mark it as deprecated in 9's release notes to alert potential existing users, discourage any new usage, and see if anyone actually complains about the intention.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libxcrypt-compat-4.4.18-3.el9
