Packaging question: Rebuild initramfs after adding to dracut.conf.d

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm working on a package that adds a configuration to dracut.conf.d. [1] To rebuild initramfs, upstream's spec file calls `dracut --force` in `%post` . [2]

Questions:
- Is it recommended that the RPM updates initramfs? 
- If so, what's the recommended method?

As background, the RPM will be used in the Google Cloud kickstart [3] during image creation, but it will also be used to allow users to import existing installations to run on Google Cloud.

What I've done so far:
- Read through https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/
- Search for example usages of `dracut`, `new-kernel-pkg`, and `installkernel` in http://src.fedoraproject.org/
