Hi, As you might know, for quite some time `mkinitrd` is just an incomplete wrapper that internally calls `dracut` and `update-bootloader` (unless it's called with `-B`). Finally, all known packages that required it in their spec file or were found to be using it have been fixed. Hence, it's time to move on. The next `dracut` update in Factory will not provide the `dracut-mkinitrd-deprecated` package. This is planned to be submitted in mid-April, before 2023-04-14, so if you still use `mkinitrd` in any of your packages or custom scripts, please replace it with `dracut` (plus `update-bootloader` if necessary). Timeline: - March 2021 : Upstream support removed - https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/commit/43df4ee2 - May 2021 : Deprecation announcement on the Factory mailing list - https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/G... - September 2022 : Bugs were opened for each affected package - https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202352 - https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202353 - https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202443 - https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1203019 - https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1203025 - https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1203052 - April 2023 : Removal of the `dracut-mkinitrd-deprecated` package Best regards.
