RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description David Lehman 2020-08-24 16:48:01 UTC 
Please add text to the release notes indicating that the peripety package is deprecated as of 8.3.0.
Comment 1 Marek Suchánek 2020-08-25 17:04:48 UTC 
Hi David,
I've written a short and basic release note to announce the deprecation. I've used the upstream repo to learn about peripety.

I have two questions:

* Do we want to state our reason for the deprecation or point to a recommended alternative to peripety?

* Just to make sure, is peripety deprecated or removed in RHEL 8.3?

We are going a different direction with new development efforts, but there isn't anything specific to announce or recommend as a replacement at this time.

It is deprecated in RHEL-8.3. The plan is to not include it in RHEL-9.

Alright. In that case, I think I can leave the release note as is. Thanks!

Since the issue described in this bug should be resolved (VERIFIED), it has been closed with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE.

If the fix for this is not released yet, check if this will ever get fixed. In case of a negative answer (ex: for  zstream releases that won't be updated anymore) then please change it as WONTFIX.

If there's anything else to be done on this BZ, if it's still active, please reopen this bug with comment.

Please note: for those bugs which are not included in errata, please add keyword 'TestOnly'.
TestOnly: Use this when there is no code delivery involved, or for use when code is already upstream and will be incorporated automatically to the next release for testing purposes only.

Thank you.
