Well, it was never a problem until they brought systemd into debian. All
my systems have separate /usr and just a very small /.

That SVR4.2 deprecated that was just the fact that proprietary packages
often polite other path under / like /opt or even worse.

It is the best way to keep your /usr flexible to further lvm grows for
example.

Well, yes, the proper solution would be to not ling against libsystemd.
