This looks like a dracut issue, indeed. Can you also report it upstream? This warning is mostly harmless, but they should fix it there too.

Edit:
Which start condition failed? Would expect it to be shown between start condition failed and Docs lines.

Thanks for the PR @loqs.

Thanks, y'all. It didn't even occur to me to look at the 'dracutdevs' repo.

This should be fixed on the next dracut release. Since this is a warning, I'm not sure we need to patch the dracut package on the Arch repo. Unless this is causing some issue to someone.

@grazzolini, I'm good with waiting for the next release.
