+Well, consider when this problem was introduced rather than when it was
+fixed.... it would have then actively *broken* your initrd's rather than
+fixing them.
+
+It's also a much bigger problem overall. The initrd copies binaries and
+libraries from your running system to create the initrd. You could argue
+that replacing any one of those components should also trigger a rebuild...
+
+Don't get me wrong, I think we should likely put some kind of
+infrastructure in place to make this easier, but I also don't want to
+see several initrd rebuilds during an upgrade. It's better to do it
+once, right at the end, but I don't think we really have any kind of
+&quot;post-everything&quot; kind of trigger we can use for that.
+
+FWIW, looking at how the kernel is packaged and how initrds are
+generated (or not) is on my todo list (hopefully with Thomas'
+support/input) for MGA4). In an ideal world we'd simply skip initrds for
+systems that don't need them (I've very deliberately configured my new
+laptop in a way that it shouldn't need an initrd for exactly this reason).
