Subject: Please update initramfs in postinst

Date: Fri, 06 Nov 2015 16:19:41 +0000

Package: xfsprogs
Version: 3.2.1
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

Hi!

Since the move to systemd as the default init system, the initramfs
will attempt to fsck and mount both / and /usr (where applicable). To
aid this, initramfs-tools will copy necessary filesystem tools into
the initramfs when it is generated.

To make this work well, all filesystem tools packages for filesystems
that are likely to be used for / and/or /usr should call
"update-initramfs -u" in their postinst. This will

 (a) ensure that necesssary fsck tools are included in the initramfs
     generated by debian-installer (see #801961 for an example failure
     here); and
 (b) ensure that bug fixes to fsck tools get included immediately in
     the initramfs

I've checked your package and I don't see any update-initramfs
calls. Please add one. If you'd like help doing that postinst work, I
can supply a patch - just ask!

OK.

(yep, xfsprogs has no postinst at all IIRC)

That would be great, if you don't mind Steve?  Many thanks!

cheers.

Here's a debdiff of what I've just built. Ignore the NMU version in

Thanks Steve - I believe there's an upstream xfsprogs release pending,
so we'll get this uploaded shortly.
