Description
Please update the TODOs below and add a note to comment on the progress.
Identified oneshot changes:- before migration:
add buster in our repo and check if packages needs to be ported(spoolinger is done, lxd needs more work, nothing else needs porting)Migrating from legacy network interface names(all machines migrated to the new Naming Rules)
- after migration:
/usr is now merged by default and most softwares expect path to be updated (look at the softwares incompatible with usrmerge layout below): apt install usrmerge(done)SysV init related packages no longer required: apt purge initscripts sysv-rc insserv startpar(done)PostgreSQL databases need to be reindexed(in fact pg_upgradecluster dumps/imports so it is not necessary)apt-transport-https is no longer necessaryon web servers php7.0-common needs to be removed manually: : apt purge php7.0-common(done)systemd-journal-upload/systemd-journal-gatewayd services user/group can be removed as they are now dynamically allocated(none found)

phpmyadmin: not in Buster but still in Debian; I see a RFA with work towards newer versions but that requires several new dependencies(backport builds done and working, see #670)ftp-ssl: still in Debian but missing in Buster because it was not ready for openssl 1.1; 0.17.34+0.2-4.1 contains a patch and could be backported in our repo (unless it comes in Debian first)- softwares incompatible with usrmerge layout:
molly-guard problems (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=930131)(molly-guard and usrmerge backported in our repo)
