Will get to the rest later tonight, two quick points: On Mon, 8 May 2023 at 09:58, Helmut Grohne <helmut@subdivi.de> wrote: > > But the more I think about it, the more I am convinced that the > > default option working best for Debian is the one that matches the > > project's choice of a filesystem layout.
