+Title: dracut module config changes
+Author: Mike Gilbert <floppym@gentoo.org>
+Posted: 2024-08-09
+Revision: 1
+News-Item-Format: 2.0
+Display-If-Installed: sys-kernel/dracut
+
+Starting with dracut-102, cryptsetup support for systemd has been moved
+into a separate module "systemd-cryptsetup". Under specific conditions,
+this change may cause a failure to boot. [1]
+
+Users who are not using cryptsetup at all will not be affected.
+
+Users who use the "dracutmodules" config option to explicitly name all
+modules to be included may be affected if they fail to update their
+dracut configuration to include the new "systemd-cryptsetup" module.
+
+Users who have not altered the default config, or who are not using the
+"dracutmodules" option should not be affected.
+
+The dracut.conf(5) manual page warns against using "dracutmodules".
+Instead, the "add_dracutmodules" and "omit_dracutmodules" can be used to
+to alter the default module list with less risk of omiting modules by
+accident.
