Hi, I am a newbie (have a mentor account and looking to help) I just looked into this bug and tried to apply the patch - but it appears the files are missing - perhaps way out of date?
Perhaps still has errors as piuparts that I ran reported a problem with the latest package I built. If it is welcome I am willing to investigate and try to fix this. If I am way off track let me know so I don't waste people's time (including mine :-) I also just tried to run piuparts in a (vagrant box in case it messed up my own initramfs ?) and still getting an error: ... 6m17.1s DEBUG: No broken symlinks as far as we can find. 6m17.1s DEBUG: Starting command: ['chroot', '/tmp/tmpJWYJRD', 'eatmydata', 'dpkg-divert', '--list'] 6m17.1s DUMP: diversion of /usr/share/man/man1/sh.1.gz to /usr/share/man/man1/sh.distrib.1.gz by dash diversion of /bin/sh to /bin/sh.distrib by dash 6m17.1s DEBUG: Command ok: ['chroot', '/tmp/tmpJWYJRD', 'eatmydata', 'dpkg-divert', '--list'] 6m17.1s DEBUG: Starting command: ['chroot', '/tmp/tmpJWYJRD', 'eatmydata', 'apt-get', 'clean'] 6m17.1s DEBUG: Command ok: ['chroot', '/tmp/tmpJWYJRD', 'eatmydata', 'apt-get', 'clean'] 6m17.4s ERROR: FAIL: Package purging left files on system: /etc/bash_completion.d/ not owned /etc/bash_completion.d/initramfs-tools.dpkg-new not owned /var/log/apt/eipp.log.xz not owned 6m17.4s ERROR: FAIL: Installation and purging test. ...
