I'm fine with the idea, but it would be nice if existing systems wouldn't be switched over without asking,
Any creative idea how to do that with zypper dup?
I don't know whether RPM supports that but Debian's debconf would allow to create a prompt to ask the user with the current setting as default. Does RPM have similar mechanisms?
so that there is no unexpected loss of data - I do happen to have dumped some stuff into /tmp that I still need and I assume other users might have done the same. Better be safe than sorry.
There would be no data loss. As Richard explained, no change on upgrade for btrfs systems that use the current defaults (tmp mounted from subvolume via fstab). Systems not using btrfs would get a tmpfs mount on top of the existing /tmp. So the content would still be there, just not visible. Which might be problem of it's own but regaining access should be as easy as "systemctl mask tmp.mount".
OK, sounds reasonable to me. Adrian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
