I think that the admin builtin is applying the mount namespace too aggressively at https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/blob/main/src/ostree/ot-main.c#L629. I'm going to do a quick test with that and see if I reproduce it...

I couldn't reproduce in an x86_64 VM where the `unshare` happens. I guess in ostree the mount propagation (at least on my system) is still shared and not private or...

Isn't that already the logic for sysroot cleanup, or are you basically describing #2510? Or do you mean you don't want the temporary ballooning to 3 deployments prior to rebooting...

Bikeshedding, but I think I'd expect the maximum deployments to be the non-ballooned value. The ballooned number of deployments is a temporary implementation detail. As a user it would bug...

Right, I thought of that while after I walked away. They're actually 2 orthogonal concepts to me. Specifying the maximum number of deployments allows you to say you want no...

Good points. I think if there are pinned deployments, they should just be ignored for the purposes of pruning deployments. For more than 2 non-pinned deployments, I think they should...
