Deprecations

...

• As a part of DEPR-43 work, a migration was added that will drop all tables related to shoppingcart.

• To disable forum digest features, you now just need to set the Django Setting FEATURES['ENABLE_FORUM_DAILY_DIGEST'] to False.

  • You used to also need to set the waffle flag edx_discussions.enable_forum_daily_digest to False, but that has been replaced with the Django Setting and the waffle flag has been removed in this PR. Robert Raposa

• The COURSE_OUTLINE_PAGE_FLAG and UNIFIED_COURSE_TAB_FLAG feature flags have been deprecated (see PR and deprecation ticket DEPR-108). They were replaced by their negative equivalent: DISABLE_COURSE_OUTLINE_PAGE_FLAG and DISABLE_UNIFIED_COURSE_TAB_FLAG which default to False. Thus, if you manually set the older flags (which defaulted to True) to False, you should set the new flags to True.

• The symlinks in /edx/bin to python, pip, and django-admin.py for each service were removed, as a new version of virtualenv used to create the virtual environments prevents such links from working correctly (in exchange for reliably creating working environments even if the newest releases of pip and setuptools have some problems, among other optimizations and fixes). Any scripts that currently call links such as “/edx/bin/python.edxapp” should be updated to instead call the binaries targeted by such links (in the previous example, “/edx/app/edxapp/venvs/edxapp/bin/python”). The PR that removed them has some additional background notes.
