I'm putting this implementation up for discussion. I don't know if the feature is desirable or if the name "notice" is the best choice.
The idea is that a package that was previously submitted to the
pack
collection might become defunct or have other important caveats worth telling users of the package about. For example, I want to move theFVect
type from myfvect
package into thecontainers
package. I'm not deleting theFVect
repository and there's no immediate need to remove it from the pack database -- removing it would potentially break downstream projects without warning. Instead, I would like to archive the GitHub repository and add a "notice" to the pack database entry that instructs consumers to findFVect
in thecontainers
package instead.I especially don't know the most effective place in pack's various processes to surface this notice to the end-user of pack so I just picked a spot that gets hit when installing a package.
