Unfortuately the netatalk related kernel module has been added to kernel-unsupported last I checked, so does this mean that netatalk is set for deprecation?
No. Moving modules into the unsupported directory (which in RHEL is packaged into a separate package, but not in Fedora except when we forgot to change it for a week or two) just means that we're trying to set expectations for maintenance. It is highly unlikely that Red Hat is going to make it a high priority to fix any bugs in one of those modules. If there's a serious security hole in one that would take a redesign to fix, we might disable it, but that would be a pretty extreme case that I can't recall seeing before, and I can't imagine being the case here.
