We *cannot* try and do this piecemeal. Changing the priority to reflect this." It's probably time for a new bug to reflect the need for a decision, and mark all these as duplicates. 74481 3 randy.macleod 2017-06-22 15:23:50 +0000 If we decide to abandon this feature, we must also remove the QA test. 75606 4 randy.macleod 2017-08-03 13:33:00 +0000 We do not have anyone that requires this feature (separate root and usr). Most linux distros are going this way so it seems pointless to resist the trend. There a good summary of the Debian rational and starting point to read more here: https://lwn.net/Articles/670071/
