Details

Description:

/etc/initcpio/hooks/bcachefs references /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions which, AFAIK, is some sort of Debian specific initramfs generator thingy. No Arch package provides it.

Nothing in the package's /etc/initcpio/ can be used by any of three initramfs generators available for Arch.


Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any
bcachefs-tools 3:1.2-2


Steps to reproduce:
This task depends upon

We could delete these files, but otoh they don't hurt and could be a good start for our own hooks.

They do hurt since mkinitcpio also uses /etc/initcpio/. Someone may try to use it in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and fail.
