Is there any plan for moving ArchLinux to the kernel-install infrastructure[1]
I've seen some talk about it from a year ago, but the discussion seems to have died off.
My personal use case is to have a hook that self-signs kernel+initramfs+cmdline images for secure boot (using my own keys), and currently I have to do that manually whenever the initramfs is updated.

You may want to check 'man alpm-hooks'. You should be able to automate what you want to do.
Unfortunately that's not enough, other hooks (which are unknown) can update the initramfs, and I can't hook on /boot/initramfs-* since it's not part of any package. ps. and yes, I already do have a hook that triggers on the linux package -- damjan
