Package: base-files
Version: 12
Severity: normal

The upgrade of base-files from 11.1 to 12 broke the use of EFI Unified Kernel Images[1] with sd-boot. Sd-boot depends on at least one of VERSION, VERSION_ID, or CODENAME being set[2] by dracut in the embedded
copy of (/etc|/usr/lib)/os-release to detect the file as a valid image.

Would it be possible to set at least one of those?

Regards,


Victor Westerhuis
