Newer developments in +some upstream packages make supporting a proper barrier between root +and /usr filesystems increasingly difficult. A long discussion +followed. Taking a decision about the question if we should do the +/usr merge was generally regarded as too early. It was noted the +latest FHS standard [Ref. 3] still requires that a system must be able to +boot off root without /usr, and that we should not remove support +where it already exists. In setups with an initramfs, some of the boot +and repair functionality can be moved from the root filesystem to the +initramfs. It was also observed that we need official documentation on +how to install a system with an initramfs, although some documentation +is already in place [Refs. 4, 5]. + +Two votes were taken: +\vote{Since that particular setup may already be subtly broken today + depending on the installed software, Council recommends using an + early boot mount mechanism, e.g. initramfs, to mount /usr if /usr + is on a separate partition.}{ + Accepted unanimously.} +\vote{The intention is to eventually not require maintainers to support + a separate /usr without an early boot mechanism once the Council + agrees that the necessary docs/migration path is in place.}{ + Accepted with 4 yes votes, 1 no vote, 2 abstentions.} + +\agendaitem{Locale for build logs in bugzilla} +\index{build logs}\index{locale} + +Reference: \agoref{gentoo-project}{daa09e196660d1ecfe2fb7a7726ce489} + +dilfridge suggested that we should make build logs English by default, +by setting an appropriate locale in our profiles.
