+upgrade:
+ - Adds a new UpgradeRemoveUnusedPackages parameter (default False) and some
+ service upgrade_tasks that use this parameter to remove any unused
+ packages. "Unused" is those services that are being stopped and disabled
+ from starting on boot (because they are being containerized). Note that
+ ignore_errors is set on all the package removal ansible tasks so any
+ issues removing a given package will not fail the upgrade workflow.
+
+ For clarity, setting UpgradeRemoveUnusedPackages to True in your deployment
+ environment file(s) will result in the REMOVAL of packages for stopped
+ and disabled services, during the upgrade.
