Package: dracut
Version: 051-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

when the dracut package is upgraded, its postinst script currently
automatically updates initramfs for all installed kernel versions.

If there's an issue in the newly generated initramfs, this can result in
all installed kernel versions becoming unbootable.

For comparison, initramfs-tools automatically updates only the initramfs
for the newest kernel version installed. This should leave older
versions bootable as before the upgrade.
