Comment:

 I disagree. If there are issues with old RPM packages in the wild, and
 some brave soul who likes RPM comes to report one, they should at least
 know that we don't have anyone currently doing this work.

 They should also know the current issues with existing, deprecated RPM
 packages, which they would presumably base their work off of, or at least
 look at for reference.

 I would only retire this component if we were forever deciding never to
 support RPM ever again, perhaps because of some kind of organizational
 decision. As Triage Overlord For A Day, this is my absolute and binding
 decree. (The next Triage Overlord For A Day can make a different call for
 completely different and unrelated reasons, of course, of course. ;)
