I have been getting:
dracut-install: ERROR: installing 'vi'
dracut-install: ERROR: installing '/etc/virc'
/usr/lib/dracut/dracut-install -D /var/tmp/initramfs.8LBEMd -a vi /etc/virc ps grep cat rm
When installing kernel-3.15.4 and when I intalled kernel-3.15.3.
The computer seems to work fine. However, I don't belieive I should be getting this.
Please help me to resolve it.
Thanks

Getting similar too. Few months ago I ran:
yum remove vim-minimal-7.4.179-1.fc20.x86_64
And today during update:

This is affecting also mock builds when the kernel package is one of the dependencies. Rising severity since this make such builds to fail.

As a workaround on mock, you can install the vim-minimal package manually before running it

dracut should depend on vim-minimal.
Same problem in rhel7.

commit 54b68829b60bc3f4c28cfca1ab0336584fe1e74c
Workaround:
echo 'install_items=" ps grep cat rm "' > /etc/dracut.conf.d/50-no-vi.conf
