Bug#384811: seems to want a /dev/.initramfs that DNE

[Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>]

Package: usplash
Version: 0.3e
Severity: normal

After installing usplash, when I reboot each lsb output line is followed
by an error message:

chdir: no such file or directory

I do not get any kind of graphical display, just lots of copies of that
error message.

I get the same error several times if I run /etc/init.d/usplash stop

sh -x shows it's coming from the usplash command; if I strace usplash it
is trying to chdir to /dev/.initramfs, which does not exist here.

I'm using udev and initramfs-tools.
