I admit I was also initially surprised. But, this actually has been going
through the Change process for a while:
F33:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NetworkManager_keyfile_instead_of_...
F36:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NoIfcfgFiles
F39:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/MigrateIfcfgToKeyfile
I would argue that it has not. Those Changes are all about the
NetworkManager plugin that reads ifcfg files. The network service -
/etc/init.d/network - is a different thing. They may be tied together
in the maintainers' minds, I don't know, but they are not tied together
technically and none of those Changes, IMHO, at all clearly conveys
"the network service is going away in Fedora 40".
