Understood and remembered now, thanks!
I'll update my patches then.

However, my plan is to propose a documentation patch that removes Fedora 
37 from the distributions we support. Even if we can go on testing old 
distributions for several reasons (such Ubuntu 16.04 for quite long 
after it was EOLed), it's hard to support distributions for which we 
don't receive updates yet.

Thanks again!
Michael.
