During a recent upgrade of dracut (and it is reproducible with `emerge -1 dracut` at will in my current system state), I got the following errors about symlink installations being blocked by a directory: >>> Installing (1 of 1) sys-kernel/dracut-105::gentoo * * Installation of a symlink is blocked by a directory: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test-makeroot' * This symlink will be merged with a different name: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test-makeroot.backup.0001' * * * Installation of a symlink is blocked by a directory: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test-root' * This symlink will be merged with a different name: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test-root.backup.0001' * * * Installation of a symlink is blocked by a directory: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test' * This symlink will be merged with a different name: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test.backup.0001' * Every initramfs built by this installation of dracut is unable to mount root, it appears to be unable to mount root (stuck-ish at "A start job is running for /dev/mapper/vg0-root"). Given the errors are around files named makeroot/root, it seemingly is a smoking gun? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -1 dracut 2. 3. Actual Results: >>> Installing (1 of 1) sys-kernel/dracut-105::gentoo * * Installation of a symlink is blocked by a directory: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test-makeroot' * This symlink will be merged with a different name: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test-makeroot.backup.0001' * * * Installation of a symlink is blocked by a directory: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test-root' * This symlink will be merged with a different name: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test-root.backup.0001' * * * Installation of a symlink is blocked by a directory: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test' * This symlink will be merged with a different name: * '/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/80test.backup.0001' * Expected Results: Symlink installation works?

Noting that while the conflict is fixed, I'm still not getting a working initramfs out of this new version of dracut. I will dig deeper and troubleshoot and open another bug if I can pinpoint the issue.
