-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 There's a potential problem with this: dnsmasq has an option to invoke child processes when the DHCP lease database changes, using the - --dhcp-script option. By making this change, those processes are going to be invoked with read-only /usr. That's probably fine in most cases, but there's no certainty that someone's script doesn't write /usr, and for that script, this is a non-backwards compatible change.
