Hey Cyril, first of all, I'm terribly sorry for the bad timing and the miscommunication. I only really realized the installer impact of that the day before yesterday when Adam pointed this out to me.

Thanks Adam Conrad! *If* you want to take the initramfs-tools/hooks/udev change into the t-p-u upload, then tb8fdd is imperative to be included. However, we never had persistant if names in the initramfs, so this is a new feature; we've had this discrepancy between names in initramfs and "real" system for many years, so I don't think it's urgent to cherry-pick this. IOW: the initramfs part isn't a regression fix. > Bottom line(s): > --------------- > I'll be testing 221-1 to make sure I reproduce the issue with a full > install, then 221-1 + two patches to make sure it goes away.

I would recommend to only put the debian/udev-udeb.install parts of http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/commit/?id=7b5eb265bbb2 into the t-p-u upload. Or both of the above patches. Either is safe against 221-1, the former is less intrusive. I need to run for today, but I can prepare an upload tomorrow early morning if you want to; if you would like to do that yourself, please go ahead with a direct NMU. Thanks!
