This is all I could find after co-maintaining lib for a long time. I've had the fortune of basically not really noticing this file, because it has had very few interactions until the confusion in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/304277 It seems to be a state of limbo, which would be nice to resolve (with great care), but this is not urgent, and first we should document its status.

# lib/deprecated
|
|
|
|
Do not add any new functions to this directory.
|
|
|
|
This directory contains the `lib.misc` sublibrary, which - as a location - is deprecated.
|
|
Furthermore, some of the functions inside are of *dubious* utility, and should perhaps be avoided,
|
|
while some functions *may still be needed*.
|
|
|
|
This directory does not play a role in the deprecation process for library functions.
|
|
They should be deprecated in place, by putting a `lib.warn` or `lib.warnIf` call around the function.
