there is a new request [1] for mkinitrd fixing few bugs for openSUSE Factory. If there are fixes for mkinitrd, they should still go in. It's still possible to switch back to mkinitrd, especially for finding issues/incompatibilities with dracut via: rpm -e dracut --nodeps zypper install mkinitrd
A few days ago we talked about this in person. The outcome was to allow dracut to be installed in addition to mkinitrd. As the next step dracut will create /boot/initramfs files, and all tools fiddling with mkinitrd|mkinitrd_setup|initrd|/boot/initrd* will be updated to call dracut instead of mkinitrd. And they will be updated to handle /boot/initramfs* instead of /boot/initrd*. The only change affecting kernel-binary.rpm is that an additional, empty ghost file /boot/initramfs* has to be created to remove old initrds. I already did a grep through the entire source tree. Packages matching the pattern above were linked to home:olh:dracut. Now its my task to wade through that and remove false matches, so that only affected packages remain in that project. But as a first step its required to step back and remove mkinitrd conflicts from dracut, and to create /boot/initramfs* files. Whoever is in charge for that, please make this change.
