My silly nraorsync transfer plugin relies on the user setting transfer_output_files = .job.ad in the submit description file to trigger the transfer of files. Then my nraorsync plugin takes over and looks at +nrao_output_files for the files to copy. But with version 23, this no longer works. I am guessing someone decided that internal files like .job.ad, .machine.ad, _condor_stdout, and _condor_stderr will no longer be tranferrable via trasnfer_output_files. Is that right? If so, I think I can work around it. Just wanted to know.
ANSWER: the starter has an exclude list and .job.ad is probably in it and maybe it is being access sooner or later than before. Greg will see if there is a better, first-class way to trigger transfers.

Did it change since 10.0? Can we still use getenv in DAGs or regular jobs?

ANSWER: Yes this is true. CHTC would like users to stop using getenv=true. There may be a knob to restore the old behavior.
Installing version 23
I am looking at upgrading from version 10 to 23 LTS. I noticed that y'all have a repo RPM to install condor but it installs the Feature Release only. It doens't provide repos to install the LTS.
