Hi Thomas,

This is only needed when running dracut --uefi, can we downgrade the gawk dependency to Recommends?

Thanks!

Jochen

Subject: dracut-core: Missing dependency on gawk

Package: dracut-core
Version: 103-1.1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: m...@mentovai.com

/lib/dracut/dracut-functions pe_file_format uses gawk. This file's source in 
the current package version is 
https://github.com/dracut-ng/dracut-ng/blob/103/dracut-functions.sh#L1061. In 
debian, the file is packaged into dracut-core and installed at 
/lib/dracut/dracut-functions. dracut-core, as of version 103-1.1, does not 
express a dependency on gawk.

I did find https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dracut/-/merge_requests/29 
introduced by a dracut project member on 2023-11-03. It would have added the 
dependency, but its proponent closed the request on 2024-07-16 due to apparent 
lack of interest.
