Support for setting the backend with -dbackend was deprecated in 1.5 (#3710).

QuLogic added this to the 2.1 (next point release) milestone Feb 25, 2017

@QuLogic

Changed my mind because there are still a few places that you missed:

  • doc/devel/contributing.rst
  • doc/faq/environment_variables_faq.rst
  • doc/users/prev_whats_new/whats_new_0.98.4.rst (iffy)

Thanks for the quick review, fixed the points you mentioned, with the exception of the 0.98.4 whatsnew (I'd rather not touch old whatsnews).

Can you start a 'removed_code' file in API changes? Other than that 👍
