+# In Linux ~4.18, IPX (Internetwork Packet eXchange) protocol and
+# NCPFS (NetWare Core Protocol Filesystem) support was removed due
+# to lack of maintenance.  Due to both being dead from a technology
+# standpoint and lack of any upstream activity, mask the below
+# packages and remove in 75 days.
