The previous S_IMMUTABLE commit broke ostree-remount; / is now not actually writable. All we really wanted to know though was whether it was *mounted* writable, so check that via statvfs() which is cleaner anyways (i.e. not via access() which kernel people hate). https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728006
OSTree is a tool for managing bootable, immutable, versioned filesystem trees. While it takes over some of the roles of tradtional "package managers" like dpkg and rpm, it is not a package system; nor is it a tool for managing full disk images. Instead, it sits between those levels, offering a blend of the advantages (and disadvantages) of both.
