Subject: The proliferation of kernel packages (plan to drop nopae, 4.4 and
 4.14)
Message-ID: <20200123113645.GA2224@starbug>

I want to drop nopae, 4.4 and 4.14 kernels from Th,
leaving us with longterm releases 4.9 (the last kernel that supports vserver),
4.19, 5.4 and a latest stable.

Thoughs? Cons?
