Thank you for all the comments and suggestions. I would like to cover
the important options in the change page so they can be used for a
reference for anyone trying to figure out a solution for their use
case. So far, I added the above link to the "Upgrade/compatibility
impact" section, but since I am only a developer here and I do not
maintain thousands of machines in the wild spawn by different
technologies, I would like to ask you to update the page with your
proposed solutions to your problems (it is still a wiki in the end).

For anaconda, I filled the following issue [1].
