Description Orion Poplawski 2024-12-27 15:59:19 UTC
systemd reports:

systemd[1]: System is tainted: unmerged-bin

but bin/sbin merge is set for F42 - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/42/ChangeSet#Unify_/usr/bin_and_/usr/sbin

systemd-256.10-1.fc41.x86_64

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2024-12-31 14:50:44 UTC
Yeah, that taint is an upstream feature. I still plan to fix this for F42, but in F41 we'll have the live with the taint. It is just a warning with no other effects.

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2024-12-31 15:49:16 UTC
Why do we have to live with it for F41?  Couldn't we patch it out?

logwatch reports systemd's taint messages - which can be useful for example for noticing EOL versions.  Having it need to know to ignore this just for F41 is annoying.
