Package: initramfs-tools
Severity: Serious
Hello, ...
This is the second step in the linux-2.6 >=2.6.13 ramdisk-tool resolution
process. As you well know, 2.6.13 dropped devfs, whcih means initrd-tool
cannot be used anymore, and we now have a choice of yaird or initramfs-tools,
to make things nice and all, a proposal was sent to all of you and on
debian-kernel, but only Simon Horman commented :
http://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2005/10/msg00232.html
So, i am now asking that all ramdisk-tool packages which the kernel team will
support implement the two following things :
1) Provide the linux-ramdisk-tool virtual package.
2) implement in their mkinitrd-compatible wrapper the two following options :
--supported-host-version : will return 0 if the version passed as argument
(for example 2.6.12-1-powerpc) can be used to generate a ramdisk, and 1
otherwise. This will mostly generally be 1 always for initramfs and
initrd -tools, not sure about the 2.2 kernel case and such though, and
some kind of 2.6 version for yaird.
--supported-target-version : will return 0 if the tool know how to generate
a ramdisk for the version passed as argument (for example 2.6.13-1-powerpc),
and 1 otherwise. This will be >=2.6.8 for yaird, >=2.6.12 for
initramfs-tools, and <2.6.13 for initrd-tools.
Note, i mark those bugs as RC, since this is of primordial importance to get
implemented quickly so that we may move 2.6.13 and beyond to sid in a timely
fashion.
Friendly,
Sven Luther

Closes: 333856 334467
Changes:
initramfs-tools (0.32) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Bastian Blank ]
* Use mklibs-copy.
* Use udevsynthesize instead of udevstart.
* hook-functions: Add ibmvscsic to list of scsi modules.
.
[ Sven Luther ]
* Added --supported-(host|target)-version support for the new post-2.6.13
ramdisk-tool policy. Added linux-ramdisk-tool virtual package too.
(Closes: #333856)
.
[ maximilian attems ]
* Resynchronise with latest upstream release.
* Place shift after variable outfile assignment.
* Fix strange chars in the Depends line resulting in no depends at all.
* Thanks to Bastian Blank for the fixes concerning the new busybox version.
(Closes: #334467)
.
[ Jeff Bailey ]
* scripts/nfs (mountroot): New variable: NFSOPTS, default to
-o retranfs=10. (Ubuntu 12942)
This can be overridden in the initramfs.conf file.
Thanks to Oliver Grawert for testing this!
.
* hook-scripts (auto_add_modules): Add jfs
(dep_add_modules): Ditto. (Ubuntu #16742)
Thanks to Colin Watson for this fix!
.
[ Adam Conrad ]
* Make us a bit more silent/tidy by default, unless "quiet" isn't on
the kernel's command line (then we're just as verbose as ever)
.
[ Jonas Smedegaard ]
* Use GNU getopt (instead of bash builtin getopts) for improved long-
opts handling.
* Quote variables.
* Use test options -n and -z.
