Description dm9pZCAq 2023-08-26 19:03:21 UTC 
currently packages that inherit kernel-2 RDEPENDs on app-arch/cpio, maybe it should be replaced with app-alternatives/cpio?
Comment 1 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev 2023-09-04 19:06:04 UTC 
Do you use an alternative?  If so, can you test with bsdcpio and tell me if it works with that initramfs ?
