Description Andreas Thalhammer 2022-07-28 11:01:56 UTC
I just installed sys-boot/plymouth-22.02.122-r1 for the first time on my laptop, and I got this note:

 * (Note: Above message is only printed the first time package is
 * installed. Please look at /usr/share/doc/plymouth-22.02.122-r1/README.gentoo*
 * for future reference)
 * If you want initramfs builder with plymouth support, please emerge
 * sys-kernel/dracut or sys-kernel/genkernel-next[plymouth].

I installed sys-kernel/dracut afterwards, and at the moment I use sys-kernel/genkernel for compiling the kernel and setting up the initramfs.

The note confused me since sys-kernel/genkernel-next has been removed from the repositories. If that is true also for the available overlays, the note and the check for either darcut or genkernel-next should be fixed and any reference to genkernel-next removed.

Reproducible: Always
