Comment 10 for bug 1890263

Good job finding a solution that works!

What's the status on Debian accepting something like this?

This also seems like a pattern that would be useful elsewhere. Is it already an established pattern?

I'm reluctant to take this for an SRU without having confidence that we won't end up iterating on it in our stable releases. It feels like it should be well established and socialized first to flush out any issues, and seems odd to me that I've not seen this pattern used before given its wide applicability.

If it's a correct and good solution then I'd expect to be familiar with it. If it's new ground then maybe we should get general acceptance across the archive and in Debian for this pattern before SRUing it.

What am I missing?
