the phrases: "old", "worn out" "used up" "a throw away" come to mind when I
think of possible definitions for the term "deprecated".
Webster's Online says:
"deprecated /adj./ Said of a program or feature that is considered
obsolescent and in the process of being phased out, usually in favor of a
specified replacement. Deprecated features can, unfortunately, linger on for
many years. This term appears with distressing frequency in standards
documents when the committees writing the documents realize that large
amounts of extant (and presumably happily working) code depend on the
feature(s) that have passed out of favor. See also {dusty deck}. "
