Description

First we can remove the corresponding Jenkins jobs (build-packages, test-provision, etc.) from their corresponding multijobs. Then we can remove from the repository:

  • References under doc, particularly doc/_includes/_supportedlinux.liquid and doc/install/packages.html.textile.liquid
  • Package build and test infrastructure under build
  • Branches under fpm-info.sh files (services/api has at least one for ubuntu2004)
  • In general, git grep -Ei '(debian.*11|ubuntu.*20|bullseye|focal)' and look for conditionals or comments that might point at code that can now be removed.

There are also a bunch of upgrades that will be unlocked as a result of dropping Ruby 2.7 but those can be separate follow-up tickets. Some of them will be substantial work.

Writing down what I said at standup: we should not start work on this until we are sure we are done with the 3.1.x series. Otherwise we are likely to create a situation where code intended for 3.1.x isn't tested on older releases and creates nasty surprises when we try to prepare a 3.1.x release.

All these build-packages and test-provision jobs have been disabled, clearing the way for a branch to remove support.
