Bug#847343: firmware-misc-nonfree: breaks update-initramfs
Package: firmware-misc-nonfree
Version: 20161130-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
the following upgrade breaks update-initramfs:
firmware-amd-graphics (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-atheros (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-brcm80211 (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-linux (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-linux-nonfree (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-misc-nonfree (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-realtek (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)

Adding "set -x" to the plymouth hook results in a flood that ends with the
following, implicating firmware-misc-nonfree:
+ ln -rs /var/tmp/mkinitramfs_tAZsDU//lib/firmware/nvidia/gm200/gr/gpccs_bl.bin
/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_tAZsDU//lib/firmware/nvidia/gm206/gr/gpccs_bl.bin

+ target=/lib/firmware/nvidia/gm200/gr/gpccs_bl.bin
+ [ -e /var/tmp/mkinitramfs_tAZsDU//lib/firmware/nvidia/gm200/gr/gpccs_bl.bin ]
+ return 1
E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth failed with return 1.
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-4.8.0-2-amd64 with 1.

Downgrading the above firmware packages immediately triggers a successful
update-initramfs.
Kind regards,
Ben.
