Bug#1020718: should at least suggest the expected compressors
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.142
Severity: minor
Hi,
a few weeks ago, update-initramfs has started to complain that zstd is
not present on the systems. As I have lost the overview over the
compressor-of-the-year evolution slope, I don't have zstd installed, and
I also can only guess from the message which compressor is preferred by
update-initramfs nowadays.
It would be helpful to have a Suggests: zstd | lz4 | xz ... in the
package that would indicate the preference of compressors, giving a hint
about which compressor to install to get rid of those pesky warnings.
Greetings
Marc
