This is not a criticism on your patch, but more is a RFD to those who helped our use of Travis by contributing to .travis.yml and ci/. Don't we need to do some other things so that we can run in vm environment, rather than in container environment, before doing this change? IOW, aren't we doing in .travis.yml something we can do only in container but not in vm (if there is any), and if so, shouldn't we be rewriting that something so that we can run in vm? I know ce59dffb ("travis-ci: explicity use container-based infrastructure", 2016-01-26) only added "sudo: false" without doing anything else (e.g. adding things that are only available to those who run in container), but if we added stuff that are not usable in vm environment after that commit since then, we need to adjust them so that we can migrate to the container-based environment, no? To me, removing that "sudo: false" line seems like the least thing we need to worry about. After all, they say that whether we have "sudo: false" or not, the CI jobs will start running in vm environment and not in container. So if the rest of .travis.yml is ready to run in vm environment, we do not have to do anything ;-). In short, my question to Lars and SZEDER is, are we already prepared to be thrown into a vm environment? If the answer is "yes", then I think removing "sudo: false" is probably still a good thing to do for documentation purposes (i.e. showing that we knew we are ready to go through their migration).
