There are some configuration files not owned by any package, such as /etc/fstab
In such an example, it might be advantageous to have YaST produce an /usr/etc/fstab at installation time, to provide the 'default filesystem layout', but then have modifications present in /etc.
I would propose to drop /etc/fstab and only use systemd.mounts. Don't know why upstream systemd thinks mount units should not be used instead of /etc/fstab.
My humble guess: /etc/fstab is a simple file, that could be edited from outside, while systemctl mount units are created/modified/whatever in a running system, requiring the mount -bind and chroot dance with a proper installation. Correct me, if I'm wrong. Cheers, Pete -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
