BTRFS IS NOT CAPABLE. Did you notice my pseudonym? "`raid5` ate my homework". I used the BTRFS = `raid5` mode, once. It LOST MY DATA. Never again. ZFS supports RAIDZ1 an= d has not lost my data at all yet. I've replaced ZFS disks on my pool. No= data loss. It keeps on going on. A file system that loses data is not a file system. It is a disaster. BTRFS is not an acceptable substitute for ZFS. If ZFS is removed from Guix, I am switching to Ubuntu and keeping my ZFS po= ol, I am not going to switch to BTRFS just to keep running Guix, I would *= like* to run only fully-free software, especially since I took the trouble = of paying a premium for a server that had coreboot, but my data is more imp= ortant and BTRFS is not an acceptable substitute for ZFS. The only restriction needed is to prevent binary redistribution. Yes, I ag= ree it is inconvenient to always have to transfer source code and recompile= each time. But it is a ***lot*** more inconvenient to replace my lost dat= a because BTRFS couldn't cut it despite more than a decade of development. = At least I can re-download the source code for ZFS each time from many tri= vial sources. My `/home`, I cannot. That is a bigger inconvenience. Thanks raid5atemyhomework
