Description of problem: Upstream commit introduced dependency on less, but it is not listed as a dependency in the spec file. http://dracut.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=dracut/dracut;a=commit;h=4592b6983a8a3879f75010629a0f6823eac912c0 This causes mkinitrd to fail: E: Failed to install less mkinitrd failed Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dracut-008-0.10.gitb2415f4.fc15.noarch.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: E: Failed to install less mkinitrd failed Expected results: Successful completion Additional info: In my situation, we are calling create-livecd to generate an iso file. The mkinitrd is being called from there.
This upstream patch should make the install of less optional, and will not require a hard dependency. http://dracut.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=dracut/dracut;a=commitdiff;h=2ca68bb82bc610cc9db6a5de5cae9c19f3bfc269
