Bug#433459: initramfs-tools: add error messages about ignored files in hooks directory



Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.89
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Hi, 

Something like the following patch would have saved me some debugging time.

--- scripts/functions.old	2007-05-29 01:13:06.000000000 +0300

 		*[![:alnum:]_]*)
+			echo "$si_x ignored: only alphanumeric or '_' allowed in filename"

 			;;
 		esac

 		if [ ! -x ${si_x} ]; then

 		if [ -d ${si_x} ]; then

 			continue
 		fi
 		initlist="${initlist} ${si_x#${initdir}/}"

Please consider applying it.

Thanks.
