Package: base-files
Version: 7.4
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Using a dracut initrd the move of os-release to /usr/lib breaks the boot, as
systemd can't find the os-release file, as it is located under 
/sysroot/usr/lib/os-release,
but the symlink points to /usr/lib/os-release.

The error message is:

"Specified switch root path /sysroot does not seem to be an OS tree. 
/etc/os-release is missing."

Replacing the absolute symlink with a relative symlink /etc/os-release -> 
../usr/lib/os-release
fixes the boot here.
