Description Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-03-25 10:03:22 UTC
Please stabilize newest revision of sys-kernel/dracut-041.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Richard Freeman gentoo-dev 2015-05-17 00:46:53 UTC
Did you intend to CC archs?
Comment 2 Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-05-17 07:29:09 UTC
Bug #538350 needs to be fixed, first.

Any updates on this?
Comment 5 Leho Kraav (:macmaN @lkraav) 2016-08-19 17:15:58 UTC
dracut-044 also needs https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/commit/c41df7e1db1adc51399ab2c22f251b15eb2065b1

Without it, encrypted volumes will have trouble opening up during boot.

Tested, both broken scenario and fixed scenario. Works.

Well, none have been marked stable, upstream devel is dead (as far as I know) and there are open bugs against it so I don't think this will go anywhere.  It might just be better to remove the old versions to start.

Why would you say upstream is dead? Steady stream of commits is constantly flowing http://git.kernel.org/cgit/boot/dracut/dracut.git/log/

I'm not sure what has blocked the 045 release though.

It's safe to say this package is not going to die any time soon, since it's by far the best initramfs builder out there.
Comment 8 Matthew Thode ( prometheanfire ) archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2016-08-19 17:51:17 UTC
oh, totally missed that, I thought they said they'd be stopping devel on it since it's being integrated into systemd (or something like that) a year ago.
Comment 9 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2016-09-12 16:28:34 UTC
This is probably WONTFIX then... but probably a bug asking for a recent snapshot would help to fix all the pending bugs :/
Comment 10 Alexander Tsoy 2016-09-12 16:47:26 UTC
I don't see any critical bug that should block stabilization. But the patch mentioned in Comment 5 should be applied (I also have applied it locally). I can open PR on github if nobody disagree.

Err.. I've never heard of anything like this.

Comment 12 Richard Freeman gentoo-dev 2016-11-21 22:26:56 UTC
Since the comment history isn't 100% clear, do we intend to CC archs on this and make it happen?  Or is there still a pending issue?
Comment 13 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2016-11-21 23:32:38 UTC
(In reply to Richard Freeman from comment #12)

I would certainly like to see that happen, but it's up to the maintainers ultimately.
Comment 14 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2016-12-02 12:16:50 UTC
any issues with CCing arches in a week or so?
Comment 15 Richard Freeman gentoo-dev 2016-12-02 12:34:41 UTC

> any issues with CCing arches in a week or so?

None here, I suggest we proceed if there is no objection raised.  I've been running it on a stable build with no issues.
Comment 16 Richard Freeman gentoo-dev 2016-12-18 21:02:54 UTC
amd64 stable, adding other archs
Comment 17 Tobias Klausmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-12-19 11:18:43 UTC
