2024-08-08 –, Rocky (Breakout 2)
In 2012, we moved the installed OS under /usr, merging /bin into /usr/bin and /sbin into /usr/sbin, implementing UsrMove. But the split between /usr/sbin and /usr/bin remained. In 2024, we made the decision to merge /usr/sbin into /usr/bin, finally getting rid of the legacy subdivision of directories.
In this talk, I'll discuss why we want to do this, how it's being implemented, and how it is going.
