Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.88
Severity: minor
Documentation of initramfs-tools is somewhat hard to find outside the
sources. For example, I didn't find docs explaning the different
meanings of the subdirectories in the scripts directory and the
interaction between /usr/share/initramfs-tools and /etc/initramfs-tools.
Please consider improving the docs.
Greetings
Marc
