Bug#525094: May actually be a bug in casper?
I ran into the same problem as the submitter, and did a little
digging, to try to find out where udevtrigger was being called from:
topher@nexus:$ grep -r 'trigger' /usr/share/initramfs-tools/*
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/casper:copy_exec /sbin/udevtrigger /sbin
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-premount/udev:udevadm trigger
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/casper-bottom/23networking:udevtrigger
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/casper-bottom/25configure_init:# use chmod in
stead of mv to not trigger unionfs bugs.
That suggested to me that real culprit here wasn't initramfs-tools,
but the casper package which may need to be updated to use udevadm
trigger instead of udevtrigger?
Either way, I'd installed casper just to play around, and didn't need
it. So, I removed/purged the casper package, and that resolved the
problem. I'm now able to successfully build and update initrd's
without issue.
