I think it's the symlink the thing that is making revdep-rebuild |
| 21 |
unhappy. Have you tried to bind mount /mnt/var into /var? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
mount -o bind /mnt/var /var |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Perhaps that will appease revdep-rebuild. |

I don't think so, although /tmp is preferred to be a tmpfs now, I |
| 30 |
believe (in both systemd and OpenRC, if I'm not mistaken). |
