Unless I'm very mistaken about how dh_installtmpfiles and systemd-tmpfiles works (possible, I guess), I don't think we need to have this argument in this bug. If I am right in assuming that nothing about this proposal will change how chroots work, arguing with people about why they use chroots is just going to add heat without any light. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
