Expected behavior

fontforge just works and keeps working in the future

Actual behavior

The warning says, a package will be removed as early as 2025-11-30. I'm wondering if the software will work two weeks from now.

Thanks, see https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/pull/5643

So this will likely be fixed in the next version, though it's unclear when that will be released.
