I filed a bug about this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1182785
Though I wonder if this should be a Change in itself, or a packaging
guideline update?
I think it does need to go through the FPC. I don’t see a benefit in splitting the Change
into two if there is a strict dependency; would it make sense to have the /var change
without the rest of the RpmOstree features, or vice versa?
To be clear, this transition doesn't have to happen all at once,
only for the packages that
one would want to consume via rpm-ostree. (Which ideally at some point is all, but
I'm focusing on the core personally)
(FWIW the schedule for going through the FPC and hitting the completion/testable deadline
on Feb 24 feels a little tight, though probably still doable. Do you know how many
packages would be affected?)
