Yes, callers should be identified and adjusted to call dracut directly. Until these have been found and adjusted, dracut needs the mkinitrd wrapper.
No, until callers have been identified and adjusted to use dracut, its not yet the time to make dracut the default.
Let me repeat: I am not going to change the kernel %post script to call dracut directly instead of mkinitrd, at least not as long the kernel package otherwise works on older distributions. Also, I think that having to ship a mkinitrd wrapper is the least problem, the more important part is making sure that dracut supports the storage setups that mkinitrd does.
The kernel does not seem to call mkinitrd, it calls /usr/lib/module-init-tools/weak-modules2. So old dists are unlikely to be affected if that script starts to make use of dracut in Factory. What I see right now is yet another bananaware approach... Olaf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
