QubesOS/qubes-linux-utils@3cd77e4 indicates, that qubes-kernel-vm-support is compatible with dracut.

However, qubes-kernel-vm-support Depends: on initramfs-tools. But initramfs-tools by Debian default, conflicts with dracut. So when trying to install dracut, initramfs-tools and qubes-kernel-vm-support gets removed.

Solution? First: Remove the dependency initramfs-tools from qubes-kernel-vm-support.

But caution. While this might be the correct thing to do, we must make sure that initramfs-tools does not get autoremoved since no other package is depending on it anymore. Otherwise this could make Qubes VMs using VM kernel unbootable.

Yes, that would be good. Would mean initramfs-tools can be removed without having qubes-vm-kernel-support removed. BUT the part "but caution" n my previous post still applies.

Also, is dracut supported on Debian?

Yes, works as drop-in solution.

So, Recommends: is ignored by autoremove?

Just now tested. Moving from Depends: to Recommends: is a simple and great solution. qubes-kernel-vm-support will not be removed when installing dracut.
