I second that. "rkt" was an awesome technology and for a while I was hoping
someone would fork it to keep it alive. Unfortunately it did not happen
so this obsolete and unmaintained package should be removed.

Red Hat wasted out time once again with intentional destruction of competing
technology through acquisition. :(

And how long a lockdown is enough? If we open now, will lockdown recur in
autumn? Next year? Whenever authoritarianism so wishes? No dictatorship
could imagine a better precedent for absolute control.
