Our error log consists mostly of dozens of messages similar to this:

> Deprecation notice: `SiteSetting.enable_personal_messages` has been deprecated. Please use `SiteSetting.personal_message_enabled_groups` instead. (removal in Discourse 3.0)  
> At /var/www/discourse/lib/site\_setting\_extension.rb:211:in `public_send`

Are these going to go away? Do we have to wait until the formal 3.0.0 to see the end of them? Maybe I have missed something but I don’t see any way to update these settings according to the messages.
