Hi,

I continued digging some more, and it turns out there is a one liner
fix for the issue that has been merged upstream:

https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/pull/2196

Would there be any hope to get this backported to be included in Fedora
39? The scope of the change is ridiculously tiny, limited to this
single modules.d/90dmsquash-live/iso-scan.sh file which is exclusively
used for this broken feature.

It would be really great to get the final Fedora 39 iso working again.

Cheers,
Matthias
