Public bug reported:
Attempting to switch a plucky install on raspi to dracut attempts to
remove flash-kernel (which is required to copy the generated initrd and
other artifacts to the boot partition). This is because flash-kernel
depends on initramfs-tools (which is going to be removed):
$ sudo apt install dracut
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
devio libiniparser4 libraspberrypi0 libubootenv-tool libubootenv0.1
mtd-utils u-boot-tools
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.
Installing:
dracut
Installing dependencies:
dracut-core
Suggested packages:
dracut-network dmraid
REMOVING:
cloud-initramfs-copymods cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf flash-kernel
initramfs-tools overlayroot ubuntu-server ubuntu-server-raspi
Given dracut now contains drop-in replacements for the various binaries
provided by initramfs-tools, could dracut simply "Provide: initramfs-tools" (as
well as linux-initramfs-tool as it currently does)?
