Description Alexander Tsoy 2013-10-31 12:56:09 UTC 
It seems that sys-apps/sysvinit dependency is not mandatory anymore [1]. The only executables from sysvinit that still needed by dracut are: reboot, poweroff, halt. All of them are also provided by sys-apps/systemd-sysv-utils.

Of course, if sys-apps/sysvinit is not installed and systemd module is not included in initramfs, then shutdown functionality will likely not work.

How about replacing the dep

>=sys-apps/sysvinit-2.87-r3

with

|| (
    sys-apps/systemd-sysv-utils
    >=sys-apps/sysvinit-2.87-r3
)

??

Comment 1 Nikoli 2013-11-19 08:16:21 UTC 
Did you verify boot after removing sys-apps/sysvinit and rebuilding initramfs?
Comment 2 Alexander Tsoy 2013-11-19 20:37:35 UTC 
Yes, everything works fine.

Committed in dracut-034-r1 (no revbump). Thanks!
