About you mentioned "deprecation notice " ,  I don't find it on original 
github of Mellanox
can you send me a link of this notice? Thanks.

besides,  from https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/rdma-core,  I  can get the 
repo is here
https://github.com/linux-rdma/rdma-core,  but it is not only 
libibverbs,  it is source
include some other package,  I think it is not proper here.
