These options are already enabled in the kernel. > Other developers: Support the caching features in their respective packages. > Special focus should be on making the system boot from a cached root FS.

Only a rebuild of the relevant packages is required. This doesn't make sense. We're doing a mass rebuild, so all packages are getting rebuild anyway. I'm confused what this Change is actually for. It doesn't sound like an actual planned and targeted set of changes. It seems more of a nebulous "we should get people to do this" proposal. josh -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
