Package: pkgsel
Version: 0.25
Tags:    patch

When checking the Ubuntu changes to pkgsel, I noticed this change:

 - Divert update-initramfs and call it just once at the end (with
   bind-mounted /dev, /proc, and /sys, and a preceding update-dev).

This seem like a good optimization for the installation time to bring
over to Debian, making sure update-initramfs is only executed twice
during the installation instead of several times more (once when the
kernel is installed by base-insatller, and once after pkgsel is done).
Is there any reason not to include it?

This patch relative to the current svn version would implement it.  It
is ripped directly from the Ubuntu patch.

With dpkg triggers, this shouldn't be needed any more, so closing.

See my comments in another bug report about a possible extra, explicit
call which we might want to get rid of:
