#28031: Documentation for uwsgi deployment mentions buggy uwsgi packages in some
distros but not when they were fixed

-------------------------------------------+------------------------
In `docs/howto/deployment/wsgi/uwsgi.txt` there is a warning about Debian
and Ubuntu shipping outdated versions of uwsgi, prior to uwsgi version
`1.2.6`. However, current Debian and Ubuntu versions already ship newer
uwsgi packages than `1.2.6`.

I'm concerned someone who is using an up-to-date version of Debian or
Ubuntu might see this note and decide that this means they need to compile
uwsgi from source themselves. Then they wouldn't be able to get security
patches for their uwsgi binary via `apt-get` any more.

Debian 8 (jessie) ships version `2.0.7`, according to
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/uwsgi
(Debian 7 was shipping `1.2.3`.)

Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty) ships version `1.9.17` according to
http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/uwsgi
(Ubuntu 12.04 was shipping `1.0.3`.)

Comment:

As mentioned on the pull request, I think this note could be removed since
it refers to old, end-of-life or near end-of-life versions.

Comment (by Richard Barrell):

I agree with you that removing the note entirely is a good course of
action too.
