I have no idea, but from a user and upgrade perspective, it's not something I would advocate for at all. Upgrades are already kind of dicey and adding "filesystem conversion" to the tools and QA matrix is just one more risk we don't really need to take. If a user wants to do it manually before they upgrade, then they're certainly able to. josh -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
