The goal is to consolidate the very basic linux commands and minimize dependence on another packages (e.g. shadow-utils). It seems better to keep newgrp, vipw and vigr as non-deprecated for now. Maybe we will found a way how to improve the code. We will see... :-) Signed-off-by:Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>

The following is a list of commands or features that are deprecated. Alldeprecated utils are in maintenance mode and we keep them in source tree forbackward compatibility only.What: chkdupexeWhy: unnecessary, in Perl, not used in distributions, possible to replace by a simple shell script.--------------------------What: 'udev' and 'list' blkid(8) output formatsWhy: udevd links libblkid directly; the 'list' is unnecessary, use lsblk(8)--------------------------What: line(1) commandWhy: useless, nobody uses this command, head(1) is better--------------------------What: losetup -sWhy: the option -s is in collision with the Loop-AES losetup dialect that is used in some distributions. Use the long version (--show) only.--------------------------What: elvtuneWhy: useless for kernel >= 2.6.9---------------------------What: arch(1) commandWhy: deprecated in favor of uname(1) or arch(1) from coreutils The arch(1) has been added (during 2.13 development cycle) to coreutils where it will be maintained as an alias for uname(1) command.----------------------------What: last(1)Why: nobody uses this implementation
