This has been discussed a bit on the dracut thread, as well on some other threads over time. I *personally* don't like the complexity of kernel-install that much.
I've now read this twice on Arch mail lists, so I have to ask, without any presumptions on my side, what are the arguments against kernel-install?
I must say, I don't see much complexity in it. It's only a 184 line bash script[1]. And as added feature, it decouples the kernel install from the kernel package install (and pacman), also defines couple of easy-to-use config locations like /etc/kernel/cmdline
But I guess I might be missing something.
[1] especially compared to dracut (not that they do the same thing), which seems much more complex, and that complexity did introduce bugs - for which I've sent a PR
As I've said, we don't need to add that *right now*. Anyone can use it though. It's as easy as overriding the hooks with your own. I didn't say we'll never consider it, but honestly, I think I'm repeating myself at this point. Regards, Giancarlo Razzolini
