Yup, this was my concern as well. I think the value of not being on older platforms outweighs needing to manage a list of packages for longer. We likely just need to keep pushing on projects to add/update bindep.txt in repo instead. We can run a logstash query against job-output.txt looking for output of using the fallback file and nicely remind projects if they show up on that list.
