Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.91d
Severity: important

Hello,

I experience problems after an apt-get dist-upgrade of my hppa machine 
with the initramfs-tools package, and I did not find anything in the 
BTS concerning this problem. I got the following error:

--8<------------------------------

$ sudo  apt-get install initramfs-tools

Innitially, only the initramfs-tools package returned an error and i 
tried to install the new kernel only later. I had a look in the 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/initramfs-tools.postinst file, and I excecuted the 
"update-initramfs -u" by hand, and that gave no error...

Let me know if you require further information.
