Severity: normal

When the -v option is passed to update-initramfs then it fails
with these error messages:
> Warp:/# update-initramfs -u -v -t -k 2.4.27-2-686
> update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.4.27-2-686
> /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs: invalid option --
> /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs: invalid option -- -
> Terminating...
> mkinitramfs failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.4.27-2-686
Everything is ok when the -v option is not passed:
> Warp:/# update-initramfs -u -t -k 2.4.27-2-686
> update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.4.27-2-686
> W: kernel 2.4.27-2-686 too old for initramfs on i386
> W: not generating requested initramfs for kernel 2.4.27-2-686
This happens because the options to mkinitramfs are passed as
one option because of the double quotes around the ${OPTS} at
line 71 of update-initramfs.

Description:
initramfs-tools - tools for generating an initramfs
Closes: 379212
Changes:
initramfs-tools (0.71b) unstable; urgency=low
.
* This time caught on bzr dotfiles, removed.
Thanks a lot to Frederik Schüler <fs@debian.org> for review.
.
initramfs-tools (0.71) unstable; urgency=low
.
* initramfs.conf.5, initramfs-tools.8, mkinitramfs.8, mkinitramfs-kpkg.8,
update-initramfs.8: Fix spacing in the SEE ALSO section and have this
section everywhere as last. Fix linebreak in mkinitramfs.8 options.
Thanks Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com> for the notice.
.
* scripts/functions: Use shell parameter expansion to strip known dir
prefix instead of gratious basename call.
.
* scripts/functions: On panic call open the rescue shell with -i to get
dash interactive features. ash from busybox ignores the param.
Thanks David Härdeman <david@2gen.com> for the suggestion.
.
* conf/initramfs.conf: Readd BUSYBOX=y section. Beware that a lot of boot
scripts need busybox and the current default image still does too.
.
* initramfs.conf: Document BUSYBOX usage.
.
* init: Add variable quoting around resume, NORESUME parsing and checks.
.
* hook-functions: Add myri10ge and smc911x to the net section. Add hptiop to
the scsi section.
.
* update-initramfs: Fix -v usage by not passing quoted ${OPTS} as one
option. Thanks Famelis George <famelis@otenet.gr> for the patch.
(closes: 379212)
.
* mkinitramfs: Really source /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf.d/ entries.
.
* mkinitramfs: Check against modules.dep before invoking depmod.
.
* hook-functions: check_minkver() only needs to call init_list(),
when a dir gets passed. Clean up check_minkver() logic.
.
* scripts/function, mkinitramfs: Add output on verbose mode.
.
* merge 0.69ubuntu4.
.
* scripts/local-top/lvm: Prereqs s/md/mdadm/ for the new hooks.
