Re: retiring python-language-server and python-pyls_black
At least python-language-server really is dead upstream[1], replaced by python-lsp-server,
which is a maintained community fork.
The python-pyls_black package isn’t usable without python-language-server, and nobody has
stepped up to migrate it to python-lsp-server in over a year[2], so it’s looking pretty
dead upstream, too.
I agree with the general advice to orphan rather than retiring in most cases, but I think
retirement is probably appropriate under the circumstances for these two packages.
