Description:
mkinitcpio version 0.6.7-1 seems to ignore what happens to gen_init_cpio, and says SUCCESS even if gen_init_cpio reports errors. The errors reported by gen_init_cpio are those in my forum post at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=103655. According to falconindy, this could be fixed by setting pipefail in the shell before executing the command, since otherwise the command is checking the return value of gzip but not gen_init_cpio. |

What's the status of this issue?
It hasn't been looked at yet, I haven't had the chance to do much
mkinitcpio work. A patch against the current git master will speed
things up though.
Patch attached.
