This line is basically a warning about old software. There are no pieces of software or software repositories that will be removed after an update with this warning.

Most likely you have a PPA / other software repository that uses an ancient digest algorithm but you cannot fix it locally, you have to contact the owner of the repository. In this case, Ubuntu maverick was a release about 6 years ago, so there is not much chance that this warning gets fixed.

However, if security is not your primary concern (as in using 6 years old software repository / distribution…) you can ignore this warning.
