Details

    Description

      Description of problem:

      The MCDaemon has a codepath for "pivot" used in older versions, and then as part of solutions articles to initiate a direct pivot to an ostree version, mostly used when things fail.

As of 4.12 this codepath should no longer work due to us switching to new format OSImage, so we should fully deprecate it.

This is likely where it fails:

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      4.12+
