I don't think we've ever done that before so there's not really any
precedent.
I think a good first step would be to add a warning to the man page, and
to print a message on stderr when it's used.
I would want to be certain there is nobody still using it before we
delete it entirely. It's not really much of a maintenance burden for us.
Yeah, I think doc and runtime warnings pointing users at bkr
workflow-installer-test instead would be the way to go -
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1121460
Any bug reports against workflow-snake would also become "CLOSED
WONTFIX" (but I don't believe there are any of those currently open)
Cheers,
Nick.
