Oops, you're right. I didn't realize this was todays upload, so installed from unstable and assumed the version was latest.
I think the migration from mkinitrd should happen in preinst, not in postinst. In preinst it isn't a conffile, and this is where typical conffile migration (move,remove,etc) strategies exist. In postinst, it *is* a conffile, and must not be modified. At the very least it should be protected with an f=/etc/initramfs-tools/modules if [ ! -e "$f" ] && [ ! -L "$f" ]; then -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
