Confirmed after uprgrade of an x86_64 system.

dkms shows ...
[   18.186968] <3>[fglrx:firegl_apl_loadDatabase] *ERROR* APL: apl initialize fail.

Fixed by running "dracut -f", so it's another case of dracut last being run before things it uses are updated.

*sigh*. Yeah, this is why I think we really cannot support doing this kind of thing long term.

I guess we could add a hack to mgaapplet-upgrade helper to offer to regenerate initrds at the end, but this only helps mgaonline users. I still maintain that we want some kind of infrastructure in urpmi, but, to be honest, this probably wouldn't play nicely with packagekit in the future anyway.

So hack in mgaaplet-upgrade-helper and it should just be "general advice" for people doing urpmi is the only suggestion I can make here. I won't be able to look at this until Sunday tho'.

Very simple to fix. Like for other low level stuff (lvm2 ...), just make the kernel either requires a new enough version or conflicts with too old plymouth in order to ensure it got updated first.

Here we want a conflict tags

This is still valid with an upgrade mga2 to 3 today.

That was almost 1Â½ yrs ago, assuming ti got fixed for later releases.

Please reopen if that's not the case
