Feature Overview (aka. Goal Summary)

OLM users can easily see in the console if an installed operator package is deprecated and learn how to stay within the support boundary by viewing the alerts/notifications that OLM emits, or by reviewing the operator status rendered by the console with visual representation.

Goals (aka. expected user outcomes)

• Pre-installation: OLM users can see the deprecation visual representation in the console UI and be warned/discouraged from installing a deprecated package, from deprecated channels, or in a deprecated version, and learn the recommended alternatives to stay within the supported path (with a short description).
• Post-installation: OLM users can see the deprecation visual representation in the console UI to tell if an installed operator is deprecated entirely, currently subscribed to a deprecated channel, or in a deprecated version, and know the alternatives as in package(s), update channel(s), or version(s) to stay within the support boundary.
