Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.96.1
Severity: normal

Hi,

when cdebootstraping an Ubuntu Lucid system initramfs-tools gets
installed now. The problem then is that at the point initramfs-tools
is unpacked the mawk package is unpacked but not configured. That
means the /usr/bin/awk alternative is not yet setup.

O: Selecting previously deselected package mawk.
O: dpkg: regarding .../mawk_1.3.3-15ubuntu2_amd64.deb containing mawk, pre-dependency problem:
O:  mawk pre-depends on libc6 (>= 2.11~20100104-0ubuntu3)
O:   libc6 is unpacked, but has never been configured.
O: dpkg: warning: ignoring pre-dependency problem!
O: Unpacking mawk (from .../mawk_1.3.3-15ubuntu2_amd64.deb) ...
P: Unpacking package mawk
D: Updating mawk to status 2
O: Selecting previously deselected package base-files.
O: dpkg: regarding .../base-files_5.0.0ubuntu20_amd64.deb containing base-files, pre-dependency problem:
O:  base-files pre-depends on awk
O:   mawk provides awk but is unpacked but not configured.
O: dpkg: warning: ignoring pre-dependency problem!
O: Unpacking base-files (from .../base-files_5.0.0ubuntu20_amd64.deb) ...
P: Unpacking package base-files
D: Updating base-files to status 2
...
O: Selecting previously deselected package initramfs-tools.
O: Unpacking initramfs-tools (from .../initramfs-tools_0.92bubuntu78_all.deb) ..
.
P: Unpacking package initramfs-tools
D: Updating initramfs-tools to status 2
O: /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: 59: 
O: awk: not found
O: 
O: /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: 59: 
O: awk: not found
O: 
O: dpkg: error processing /var/cache/bootstrap/initramfs-tools_0.92bubuntu78_all.deb (--unpack):
O:  subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 127


While this could be blamed on cdebootstrap I think it might be a good
idea to fix initramfs-tools. The relevant command is

  awk ' { print $1 } '

which really does not need awk. "cut" would do instead and avoid the
rather probelamtic pseudo-essential awk issue.
