imho removing the devel packages is basically the same as removing
openssl1.1 entirely. To me the idea of "deprecation" is to warn users
that something is going away WITHOUT removing functionality
immediately.
I just wanted to note, since I haven't noticed it elsewhere in this
thread, that "deprecation" for a Fedora package has a specific meaning
as described in
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/deprecating-pac...
When a package is deprecated, the intent is that no new dependencies on
any deprecated package would appear in the distribution, either by new
packages or from existing packages adding dependencies. Of course, I
don't know what actually checks this; it's not particularly common to
deprecate packages.
