Well, believe what you want. But even in Fedora it's probably <= 15
packages that care about the EFI mount point.

the sbin/bin merge and the usr merge otoh touched pretty much *every*
package in the repo.

I think the reproducible build stuff currently being in fedora is also
going to be a harder thing to do.

But anyway, we can certainly agree that we have different
concepts/metrics of "hard" or "easy" tasks.
