Deprecation warnings
swiss.py
script is deprecated as the core API has changed quite a lot but keeping up with the script has not been feasible time wise. The reported usage should mean very few is affected by this and will be removed following the next release after this one.Pacman()
class will be re-worked in #2787, and will no longer taketarget=
as an argument. Instead.strap
now takesPacman().strap(target=)
. It will also use libalpm for its operations in the future to do local package lookups rather than rely on archlinux.org JSON API for package search.- Versions henceforth will drop the prepended
v
notation, meaning the next version will be3.0.1
instead ofv3.0.1
.
