That will only affect new installs right? I want to make sure that I force it on everyone hence why I was thinking of obsoleting, but perhaps I should just put it in as a require somewhere (e.g. to systemd) such that everyone gets it but can still technically use mkinitrd should they have a real need (i.e. dracut is really broken!)
