# mkinitrd
dracut: *** Including module: i18n ***
dracut-install: ERROR: installing '/usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/B1.fnt.*'
dracut: FAILED: /usr/lib/dracut/dracut-install -D
/var/tmp/dracut.H4ue7H/initramfs /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/B1.fnt.*


Expected to see
===============

Don't force-add a dot; try {"B1.fnt", "B1.fnt.*"} instead of just {"B1.fnt.*"}.


Other notes
===========

There is no mention in the vconsole manpage whether FONT= files are supposed to
have an extension or not; however, openSUSE Tumbleweed has this default
vconsole for me, so I guess an extension is legit, and mkinitrd is wrong.

KEYMAP=us
FONT=eurlatgr.psfu
FONT_MAP=
FONT_UNIMAP=

This bug applies to both 15.3
(dracut-049.1+suse.238.gd8dbb075-150200.3.60.1.x86_64) and Tumbleweed
(dracut-057+suse.309.gb71946f6-1.3.x86_64).
