What is the upgrade path from pre 2.0.0.0 s6 installs to 2.0.0.0. Are there any major compatibility issues? With the new major version in the release number, not sure if I should expect an upgrade to just *work*.
As far as I can tell, things should just work. The release number is simply aligned with the skalibs release number; skalibs has changed a lot, but the s6 code itself, not so much. What *is* important to check, though, is that you do not mix binaries from different releases. If you're using --enable-slashpackage, you're safe: intra-package dependencies are versioned. If you're not, make sure to always have all binaries of a single release accessible via PATH search. s6-svwait from 2.0.0.0 will not work if the s6-ftrigrd program it calls is from 1.1.3.2. -- Laurent
