Right now bootc container lint checks for /ostree being a symlink, even if /sysroot/ostree isn't present. This is mildly annoying for people doing composefs-native systems.
However: Digging into this, I think what we really want is a more explicit opt-in to a composefs-backed install beyond just "has sealed UKI". We have three knobs:
- compile time default (in fact I'd like to support compiling bootc without ostree at all, that's a whole other thing)
- install config
- Detect
/usr/lib/composefs/setup-root-conf.toml (even if empty)
Of these, I think 3 is immediately actionable and matches the requirement for ostree-prepare-root.conf at least.
