Bug#804264: release-notes: LSB drops all lsb-* compatibility packages



Package: release-notes
Severity: normal


This should be worth being mentioned in the release-notes(?)

Quoting lsb NEWS files
> lsb (9.20150826) unstable; urgency=low
>
>  This update drops all lsb-* compatibility packages, and is therefore an
>  abandon of the pursuit of LSB compatibility for Debian. Only lsb-release and
>  lsb-base are kept as they continue to be used throughout the archive.

Compare the package list:
	https://packages.debian.org/source/jessie/lsb
	https://packages.debian.org/source/stretch/lsb

BTW, Debian FAQ should be updated too if this is confirmed.
