Changelog

dracut (059-4ubuntu2) mantic; urgency=medium

  * Split dracut-install into separate package for initramfs-tools
    (LP: #2031185)
  * Update out-of-tree patches to final version merged upstream
  * Cherry-pick upstream fixes:
    - fix(dracut-systemd): rootfs-generator issues
    - test: increase test VM memory from 512M to 1024M to avoid OOM killer
  * Address lintian complains:
    - Remove empty directories in /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d
    - Add ${misc:Depends} to all binary package dependencies
    - Override lintian complaint executable-in-usr-lib (reported upstream)
    - Override false positive about missing init.d scripts
  * Install files from debian/tmp to make dh_missing happy
  * Install dracut.kernel.7 man page (link to dracut.cmdline.7)
  * Restrict autopkgtest to amd64 (other architectures need upstrem work)
  * autopkgtest: run more upstream test cases

dracut (059-4ubuntu1) mantic; urgency=medium

  * fix(test): running tests no longer requires to be root
  * test: Make dracut and modules.d directory configurable
  * Add upstream autopkgtest to run four test cases (LP: #2031417)
  * Add modules 80test, 80test-makeroot, and 80test-root to dracut-core

Binary packages built by this source

dracut: Initramfs generator using udev

 This package builds a bootable initramfs for Linux kernel packages. The
 initramfs is loaded along with the kernel and is responsible for
 mounting the root filesystem and starting the main init system.

dracut-config-generic: dracut is an event driven initramfs infrastructure

 This is the dracut configuration to turn off hostonly image generation

dracut-config-rescue: dracut is an event driven initramfs infrastructure

 This is the dracut configuration to turn on rescue image generation

dracut-core: dracut is an event driven initramfs infrastructure (core tools)

 Unlike existing initramfs's, this is an attempt at having as little as
 possible hard-coded into the initramfs as possible. The initramfs has
 (basically) one purpose in life -- getting the rootfs mounted so that
 we can transition to the real rootfs. This is all driven off of
 device availability. Therefore, instead of scripts hard-coded to do
 various things, we depend on udev to create device nodes for us and
 then when we have the rootfs's device node, we mount and carry on.
 Having the root on MD, LVM2, LUKS is supported as well as NFS, iSCSI,
 NBD and FCOE with dracut-network.

dracut-core-dbgsym: debug symbols for dracut-core
dracut-install: dracut is an event driven initramfs infrastructure (dracut-install)

 This package just contains the dracut-install command to be used by
 initramfs generating tools.

dracut-install-dbgsym: debug symbols for dracut-install
dracut-live: dracut is an event driven initramfs infrastructure (live image modules)

 Package to build a dracut initramfs with live image capabilities.
 .
 This package requires everything which is needed to build an
 initramfs with dracut, with live image capabilities, like Live CDs.

dracut-network: dracut is an event driven initramfs infrastructure (network modules)

 Package to build a dracut initramfs with network support. This
 includes dracut modules for NFS, CIFS, iSCSI, HTTP, NBD, FCP and FCOE.

dracut-squash: dracut is an event driven initramfs infrastructure (squashfs modules)

 Package to build an initramfs with most files in a squashfs image.
 .
 This package provides a dracut module to build an initramfs, but
 store most files in a squashfs image, result in a smaller initramfs
 size and reduce runtime memory usage.
