Zbigniew decided that 'migrating' existing systems would be too risky, so instead, they still have a separate /usr/sbin , but everything in it should now be a symlink pointing to /usr/bin. I have reservations about this design as it means pre-F42 upgraded systems will differ significantly from F42+ fresh installs forever, but we'll see how it works out. -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @[email protected] https://www.happyassassin.net -- _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
