1) linux 2.4 kernel packages optionally use initrd-tools 2) linux 2.6 kernel packages optionally use initrd-tools 3) initramfs-tools comes along, including an initrd-tools wrapper 4) yaird comes along, including an initrd-tools wrapper 5) initramfs-tools adds non-initrd-tools options to its wrapper 6) yaird mimics (or ignores, really) some of those options 7) linux 2.6 kernel packages drop support for initrd-tools 8) kernel team promises yaird support is not affected (hinting that I am insane to even ask) 9) Breakage reported as bug#518315 is rerouted to yaird by the kernel team, considering yaird broken to not fully mimic initramfs-tools. The kernel team has not responded to my latest questions targeted both bug#518315 and the kernel team mailinglist.
