Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.109.1
Severity: normal
File: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools

The script /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools checks for the existence
of /usr/sbin/update-initramfs using an absolute path, but later invokes it
without any path. Among other possible dangers, this causes problems when
/usr/sbin is not in one's PATH.

I discovered this when trying to build a kernel with kernel-package,
fakeroot, and zsh (which by default does not include /usr/sbin in PATH for
ordinary users).
