In Debian, they do that by installing all dependencies of a to-be-built package into a chroot, which for our purposes is exactly equivalent to installation to a writable snapshot. In fact, their "cowbuilder" can use LVM snapshots, too. I don't know how this is implemented in Fedora, any pointers? > I think this really should be fixed in the build system, not in the > system-update.target logic. Point taken, and you are right that the system-update.target logic is a bad place to solve it. What I was talking about (when mentioning installation to a snapshot as an alternative possibility of offline updates) indeed does not need any support from systemd - just the ability of the package manager to set a different btrfs root mount option for next boots. -- Alexander E.
