Hello everyone, dracut-uefi-hook is now in maintenance mode and won't get feature updates anymore. Please take a look to dracut-ukify, which uses systemd's ukify tool and provides similar experience.

Some notes for upgrading path:
1. cmdline must be specified in /etc/dracut-ukify.conf, dracut's own config cannot be used for that purposes
2. UEFI secure boot keys (if any) - the same as cmdline
3. It already supports custom image variants (like fallback image of mkinitcpio)! Also see in the config file for samples.

About upstream url: there is no dedicated upstream for this project, I used AUR's git for this purpose. So I can only set upstream url to AUR page itself.

I'll add conflict in the next update, thanks.

Wow, that was fast! Confirmed it is fixed, thanks!

If I might make a couple general suggestions: It would be nice to have an upstream URL to a git repo, and it might be wise to add a conflict with the (in my opinion inferior) dracut-hook-uefi package.

@deimosian thanks for the report! Fixed in 3-1, please give a try!
