Ignoring those that don't make sense as a root/usr fs at all, I think
we have (possibly?)
btrfs-tools - calls update-initramfs -u in post{inst,rm} and has an
initramfs hook to put things in the right path
e2fsprogs - does nothing
f2fs-tools (?) - does nothing
gfs2-utils (?) - does nothing
jfsutils - does nothing
ocfs2-tools (?) - does nothing
reiser4progs - adds an initramfs hook, but doesn't call update-initramfs
reiserfsprogs - does nothing
xfsprogs - does nothing
About to start looking at bugs and filing if they're not already reported.
