@node Obsolete modules @section Obsolete modules @cindex Obsolete modules Modules can be marked obsolete. This means that the problems they fix don't occur any more on the platforms that are reasonable porting targets now. @code{gnulib-tool} warns when obsolete modules are mentioned on the command line, and by default ignores dependencies from modules to obsolete modules. When you pass the option @code{--with-obsolete} to @code{gnulib-tool}, dependencies to obsolete modules will be included, however, unless blocked through an @code{--avoid} option. This option is useful if your package should be portable even to very old platforms. In order to mark a module obsolete, you need to add this to the module description: @example Status: obsolete Notice: This module is obsolete. @end example
