Ported from suse15-diskless, with the differences 16 forces: - dracut symlinks /lib/dracut/hooks to /var/lib/dracut/hooks, so a hook shipped at the old path replaces the symlink with a directory - there is no netconfig or /etc/sysconfig/network to hand the running address to, so the initramfs writes a NetworkManager keyfile instead. Without it NetworkManager claims the interface on its own terms and the tethered root filesystem goes away with the old address, and confignet never gets the chance to refine anything - the discovery loop retries without a delay, so a link that takes a moment to come up can exhaust all 30 tries before the first packet can go anywhere. Keep asking, as the el9 hook already does

Versioning and releases
The top-level VERSION file names the release the current branch is working toward. Build scripts
call ./mkversion, which turns it into the version stamped on packages: the tag itself on a release
tag (4.0.1), otherwise a development version (4.0.1.dev5+gdeadbee, or 4.0.1~dev5+gdeadbee for
the packages that have no setup.py).
mkversion also derives a version from the newest tag reachable from HEAD and uses whichever is
higher, so forgetting to bump VERSION after tagging the current branch cannot walk the version
backwards. Staying ahead of tags on other branches is what VERSION itself is for: patch releases
are tagged on release branches, which master never sees.
Cutting a new series:
- Land the release commit on master and tag
X.Y.0there. - Create branch
X.Yfrom that tag; it inheritsVERSION=X.Y.0. - Only then bump
VERSIONon master. Doing it before step 2 leaves the release branch on the wrong series.
Patch releases land on branch X.Y and are tagged X.Y.Z there; no VERSION edit is needed.
