Description of problem: When dracut is run as part of a kernel upgrade on a minimal install, a warning is generated that it cannot find the /usr/bin/strip binary. Dracut needs to Requires: binutils to address this. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dracut-027-36.git20130418.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run dracut on a minimal install (without binutils) 2. 3. Actual results: User receives a warning about an inability to strip the initrd. Expected results: Everything should work correctly. Additional info:
I will downgrade the "warning" to an "info", because binutils should not be required.
