Yes, but the wiki does not allow full links into itself. Will be fixed
in the final news item.
2. According to 23.0_update_table, my non-systemd
default/linux/amd64/17.1/desktop/plasma should now be
default/linux/amd64/23.0/split-usr/desktop/plasma.
Correct.
But that name looks
like merged-usr is now considered "better" than split-usr, as it has
to
be specifically mentioned in the profile name.
I'd prefer "more standard", "more common", "more usual" ...
It'll definitely soon be the configuration where software is (globally)
more tested, independent of what Gentoo does. (if that is not already
the
case now...)
Therefore I probably should migrate to merged-usr.
You can migrate after the profile upgrade, but you don't have to.
No hurry.
But the only instruction how to do that
assumes systemd.
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Merge-usr
Doesn't mention systemd anywhere. I'll update this page a bit
mentioning the new naming scheme in 23.0, and link it in the news item.
And there's no plasma profile with merged-usr but
without systemd anyway... except that there is:
default/linux/amd64/23.0/desktop/plasma, it's just not mentioned in
the
table.
It's fairly simple:
* In 17.x, every systemd split-usr profile has a corresponding
merged-usr profile
* In 23.0, every split-usr profile has a corresponding merged-usr
profile

Wait, does this mean that split-usr will be gone soon?
