Just because the scripts don't use it, doesn't mean it doesn't have

So build cat as a shell function :)
More seriously, I agree it is helpful to have some tools available
when
trying to debug, or develop dracut. But when I move this into

in a cluster here, I'm going to want my image as lean as I can get it.
What do you think of making a module, say 99useful-tools, what
installs
various tools that would be helpful, and have it installed by default.
That way, it is easy to have the best of both worlds.
That is what the much neglected 95debug module is for.
