It is sad to see how Broadcom cannot do padding right for mobile…

But on topic: why not create docker.io/bsi and let /bitnami as is without new updates? Then nothing breaks; it just won’t be possible to do upgrades. You’ll then figure out why and possibly seamlessly switch to your own build or BSI.

If people are relying on you for automatic security updates, and you've decided to no longer provide these updates [for free], users should opt in to accept the risk.

This would normally require user action (after a period of warnings/information), and having the fix look 'obviously' unsafe (`/bitnami ` ->`/bitnamilegacy`) feels reasonable.
