Details

Description:
In /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90stratis-clevis/module-setup.sh (provided by stratisd package), among others, jq, tpm2_createprimary, tpm2_unseal, tpm2_load (last 3 commands provided by tpm2-tools) are also mandatory for stratis-clevis dracut module. However jq and tpm2-tools is not specified as either mandatory or optional dependencies in stratisd package.

Additional info:
* package version(s) - stratisd package (version 3.5.7)

Steps to reproduce:
* Execute 'dracut --hostonly --no-hostonly-cmdline --quiet <path to initramfs>'. This command will successfully generate a initramfs.
* Uninstall jq (or tpm2-tools).
* Execute above mentioned command again.
* Output will be -

dracut: dracut module 'stratis-clevis' cannot be found or installed.

Temporary mitigation:
Install jq and tpm2-tools in addition to stratisd for using clevis with stratisd

Long term mitigation:
Add jq and tpm2-tools as optional dependencies for stratisd package. This will let users know of these dependencies when a user wants to use clevis along with stratis.
This task depends upon

Users are expected to pay attention to pacman output when installing pkgs. tpm2-tools is already listed as an optdep of clevis so that is covered. But jq should be mentioned somewhere.
