Title:
update-initramfs should update all initrds
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Packages like dmraid, evms, udev and usplash call update-initramfs in
their .postinst scripts with the -u option only. Therefore only the
current or latest initrd is updated, and none of the others that the
user might has installed.
This should maybe be fixed in all the individual packages to use "-k
all". (BTW the usage hint in update-initramfs says "ALL" with
capitals, whilst the scripts checks for "all".)
A useful side-effect of the current behaviour is that the other
initrds are kept as "backups" in case the newly created initrd does
not work. However, other programs might depend on the new
functionality in the new initrd.
