They will be removed in libguestfs 1.58 (the next but one version).
Currently they don't actually compile. The larger problem is that
they don't handle 64 bit quantities properly (using floats instead),
meaning that any disk size or offset above a certain size will be
improperly passed through the API, usually rounded to the nearest
53 bits.
Run this command across the source:
perl -pi.bak -e 's/(20[012][0-9])-20[12][012]/$1-2023/g' `git ls-files`
and remove changes to po{,-docs}/*.po{,t} (these will be regenerated
later when we run 'make dist').
Done using a sequence of regular expressions like this:
perl -pi.bak -e 's{C</}{F</}g' `git ls-files \*.pod` generator/actions.ml
perl -pi.bak -e 's{C<C:\\}{F<C:\\}g' `git ls-files \*.pod` generator/actions.ml
[etc]
and then tediously checking every change by hand.
This changes podwrapper so that the input (POD) files should not
contain an =encoding directive. However they must be UTF-8.
Podwrapper then adds the '=encoding utf8' directive back during final
generation.
This in particular avoids problems with nested =encoding directives in
fragments. These break POD, and are undesirable anyway.

Ensure each man page contains consistent COPYRIGHT and AUTHOR
sections.
Remove the LICENSE section. We will add that back in podwrapper in a
later commit.
In libguestfs 1.20, you will be able to use 'add_drive'
instead of 'add_drive_opts' (except in the C bindings).
However until libguestfs 1.20 is the minimum stable version
people will still be using old versions where you have to use
'add_drive_opts'. This makes the examples confusing.
Therefore continue to use 'add_drive_opts' in the examples
for now.
By using the once_had_no_optargs flag, this change is backwards
compatible for callers (except Haskell, PHP and GObject as discussed
in earlier commit).
For example the existing method:
public void mkfs_opts (String fstype, String device, Map<..> optargs);
is now accompanied by this overloaded method which is a simple wrapper:
public void mkfs_opts (String fstype, String device)
throws LibGuestFSException
{
mkfs_opts (fstype, device, null);
}
