Quoted from #3239:

> Of course, the issue of underlying directory not getting updated goes for _any_ (temporary) mounts we happen to touch during a transaction. This may call for stepping back a bit for an overall strategy (fancy expression for "I don't know" 😆 )
> 
> We know what mounts we cross paths with, and we technically even know which ones are readonly mounts. We just don't make a good use of that information: if we try to install something on such a filesystem we fail out with "not enough space" which is a bit confusing. Maybe we could automatically add readonly mounts to %_netsharedpath so they get skipped, but we shouldn't do that for an fs where we're actually trying to install to, only for the mountpoints.

> And, that still leaves the question of what to do with _any_ temporary mounts.
