Probably a dumb one, but...
I have /home, /usr and /var on separate partitions...
If I want to image my system prior to the update 'just in case'
something goes south, am I correct that all I need to worry about is /,
since /etc is located there?
In other words, is anything on /usr or /var touched during this update?
No.
$ equery files openrc | grep '/usr/|\/var/'
$ equery files baselayout | grep '/usr/|\/var/'
$
All the affected configs are in /etc/
That was all I backed up when I did mine to. If it does go south, just
re-emerge the old packages and restore /etc from your backups. Should
be back to normal.
That said, follow the guide and you should be fine. It went smoothly
for me.
