Hi,
when a file texmf-config/tlmgr/config exists with
require-verification=1
(inherited by copy paste from a TL2018 config)
one gets
$ tlmgr conf
tlmgr: The options verify-downloads and require-verification have
tlmgr: been superseded by verify-repo, please use only the latter!
and tlmgr refuses to update
$ tlmgr update --list
tlmgr: The options verify-downloads and require-verification have
tlmgr: been superseded by verify-repo, please use only the latter!
However, no indication is given that the problem comes
from a config file.
This may confuse aging users, although in the case at
hand the step of creating texmf-config/tlmgr/config in 2019/
may a be recent act, still, it could be better to add
something such as
tlmgr: (check tlmgr configuration files; cf tlmgr man page or --help)
as a pointer to further action,
Best,
Jean-François
