Package: initrd-tools

linux-2.6 no longer allows initrd-tools for the generation of the
initrd.  It's not clear however whether this is intentional or just a
typo.  The following changelog claims that all initrd/initramfs
generating tools are supported, so I assume this would include
initrd-tools:

| linux-2.6 (2.6.13+2.6.14-rc4-0experimental.1) experimental; urgency=low

|  * Fixed control.image.in to depend on :
|      initramfs-tools | yaird | linux-ramdisk-tool
|    where linux-ramdisk-tools is the virtual package provided by all
|    initrd/initramfs generating tools.

initramfs-tools and yaird provide 'linux-initramfs-tool' while
initrd-tools provides 'linux-initrd-tool'.  I see that the current
linux-2.6 depends on linux-initramfs-tool, but that is not fulfiled by
initrd-tools.

Is this a typo in the Provides of initrd-tools or will initrd-tools
not work with 2.6.14 kernels?
