9 Internal changes in sys-fs/cryfs-0.10 [1] made it incompatible with encrypted
10 containers created with 0.9.x. No automatic migration of old containers is
11 provided. This requires manual upgrade planning.
12
13 Before updating, copy all data from cryfs containers to a temporary and secure
14 location. After 0.10.x update, move it back into a newly created container.
15
16 This is being made more complicated by conflicting boost dependencies:
17 - sys-fs/cryfs-0.9.x depends on sys-fs/cryfs-1.65.0
18 - sys-fs/cryfs-0.10.x depends on >=dev-libs/boost-1.65.1
19
20 Which means this update is going to be part of a bigger system update as
21 typically many boost consumers need to be rebuilt.
