(a) They weren't deprecated, they were moved into a different directory.

(b) There have been several announcements of the 1.6.0 prereleases and the 1.6.0 release crossposted. Of course somebody forgot to tell you what you will learn from these release notes. Unfair.

(c) There do happen unannounced software updates on shell servers over which you don't have control. Ask for your money back.

(d) "-" -> " "?  Molehill.
