Bug#956661: /usr/sbin/update-initramfs: update-initramfs hangs forever when trying to update
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.136
Severity: grave
File: /usr/sbin/update-initramfs
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
Not much to report. Update-initramfs hangs forever when trying to create a new
file or update a current one.
This happened after this afternoons update on Debian Sid. It's pretty much
useless
now.
