Well, I don't speak for the teams that want to implement this, but my |
6 |
recommendation is that it not become a requirement until everything is |
7 |
in place to support it. So, our initramfs tools should automatically |
8 |
find and mount /usr and /var, and so on. Documentation should be |
9 |
updated as well, such as the raid+lvm guide. Once all that is done |
10 |
and working in ~arch, then it could be stabilized, at which point we |
11 |
can start expanding this dependency. |

Considering that we still haven't finished doing all of this for |
14 |
OpenRC yet, I wouldn't worry about the changes hitting you anytime |
15 |
soon. I'd consider a lessons-learned from OpenRC that we shouldn't |
16 |
stabilize packages until AFTER the docs are updated. Otherwise it can |
17 |
tend to never happen. |
