This is just a reminder that the above work to remove the
zuul-cloner shim and bindep fallback package list from non-legacy
jobs will be merged some time on Monday, June 24 (just the other
side of this coming weekend). Per other messages in this thread you
can test the zuul-cloner shim removal for particular jobs you're
concerned about with "Depends-On: https://review.opendev.org/663996"
or by creating a similar do-not-merge sort of change to parent your
custom job definitions on the base-test job.

Obvious uncaught breakage to look out for on Monday will be failures
revolving around "command not found" errors for zuul-cloner or other
commands which may have been provided by one of the packages in the

list.
