Subject: reset: deprecate the script, and remove reset.033c
X-Git-Tag: v2.27-rc1~118
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=14867b0f723ab98821f5535561342d7c76fc28f3;p=thirdparty%2Futil-linux.git

reset: deprecate the script, and remove reset.033c

Most distributions probably ship reset from ncurses, which means
util-linux reset(1) is unlikely to be in use anywhere.  Assuming the
previous being true it is almost unimaginable anyone one would be using
the alternative script, so remove it and mark the script deprecated.
