(Re-sent to include in bug report.) Greetings. If 'busybox-static' is installed (instead of 'busybox'), and the system has a kernel from a Debian 'linux-image...' package, then when the initrd image for the 'linux-image...' package is built (using by the scripts in the 'initramfs-tools' package), 'busybox-static' is included in the image, and booting using this image generates *many* of these 'Using fallback suid method' messages. Thus, the maintainer of the 'initramfs-tools' package understandably does not want to use 'busybox-static' as an option (either via "Depends:" or "Recommends:") when installing the 'initramfs-tools' package.
Can you please provide me a time-frame for when this bug might be addressed? I see that it is now 2 years and 59 days old. Note also that this issue relates to bug #375568: busybox-static should include "Provides: busybox".
