Description

Apparently deprecation of packages were never allowed. We must enhance
doclint to enforce this, see https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8140692.

Thus we should warn if @deprecated or @Deprecated is present in a package-info.java, (and maybe package.html ?)

Comments

Also, -Xlint for @Deprecated on packages
