Bug#323077: initrd-tools: Installation fails due to bug in postinstall-script e2fsprogs
Package: initrd-tools
Version: 0.1.81.1
Severity: important
The command ldd /sbin/tune2fs /usr/bin/awk | sort -u | awk '{print $3}'
within the script /usr/share/initrd-tools/scripts/e2fsprogs provides the
following output:
/lib/libblkid.so.1
/lib/tls/libc.so.6
/lib/tls/libc.so.6
/lib/libcom_err.so.2
/lib/tls/libdl.so.2
/lib/libe2p.so.2
/lib/libext2fs.so.2
/lib/tls/libm.so.6
/lib/libuuid.so.1
(0xffffe000)
The script expects paths and file names to copy but no hex number and thus
exits with error level 1 and the message it cannot stat '(0xffffe000)'.
Since this problem makes kernel installations fail, it might lead to
unbootable machines.
