I picked the one I installed on May 30: dpkg - warning: downgrading initramfs-tools from 0.92f to 0.92b. (Reading database ... 31272 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace initramfs-tools 0.92f (using initramfs-tools_0.92b_all.deb) ... Unpacking replacement initramfs-tools ...

Aparently the warning comes from the flash_kernel_set_root initramfs hook in flash-kernel? It looks like either it is not caused by initramfs-tools or the bug somehow keeps itself active perhaps due to me running the commands from a not fully booted system... (but this was not the case the first time I ran into the issue, that was a normal upgrade on a fully running system) Joost -- homepage: http://damad.be/joost photo/blog: http://damad.be/joost/blog -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
