I'm going over the upstream release notes[1], and found this bit for version 24.0.0:

  Remove the deprecated AUFS and legacy overlay storage drivers. moby/moby#45342, moby/moby#45359

I thought AUFS was already removed, see bug #1939106[2]. But my question is if the removal of "overlay" is bound to cause another issue like that? How common is the overlay storage driver? It looks like the default is overlay2, so maybe "overlay" is really old and deprecated.

I know back in [2] it was decided to stick with upstream's deprecation. I'm just wondering if this will be another such case where we will have to defend our choice.
