Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.98.8
Severity: important
The btrfs module depends on libcrc32c which requires a crc32c
provider like crc32c, but does not specify it in depends; and
the module is thus not included. The result is that if you
choose to install with / formatted as btrfs, the installation
is not able to boot.
A possible solution is to include the crc32c module whenever
a module requests libcrc32c.

OK, I obviously did not upgrade my kvm guest and reported the bug from
the host. I just freshy installed the guest and did not expect missing
upgrades, but forgot that I was not connected to the internet at install
time and thus installed old versions from CD without upgrade.
