Announcements of Future Feature Removals and Incompatible Changes:
* To work around limitations of X11's keyboard handling systemd's
keyboard mapping hardware database (hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb) so far
mapped the microphone mute and touchpad on/off/toggle keys to the
function keys F20, F21, F22, F23 instead of their correct key
codes. This key code mangling will be removed in the next systemd
release v258. To maintain compatibility with X11 applications that
rely on the old function key code mappings, this mangling has now
been moved to the relevant X11 keyboard driver modules instead. Thus,
in order to ensure these keys continue to work as before make sure to
update the xf86-input-evdev and xf86-input-libinput packages to the
newest version before updating systemd to v258.
* Support for automatic flushing of the nscd user/group database caches
has been dropped.
