1 Noticed this warning from sys-fs/udev-249.6-r1 while watching it build on
2 one of my MIPS systems:
3
4 ../systemd-stable-249.6/meson.build:64: WARNING:
5 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8 split-usr mode is going to be removed

11 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

14 Is this a warning of an upcoming change added by us, or something added by
15 upstream? Is it specific to the udev functionality in systemd, or all of
16 systemd? Do we know when this removal will happen? Are we going to
17 maintain split-usr mode after its removal or just follow along with whatever
18 upstream wants to do?

20 Lot of questions, but that's a pretty big and blatant warning, so it seems
21 like something may happen sooner rather than later. Having not seen any
22 recent discussion regarding shed colors on the topic, I figured I'd inquire.
