Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.118
Severity: normal

I just set up a new jessie system and ran dpkg-reconfigure -a -u¹.

This did some stuff to grub-pc (I think) and then left
initramfs-tools broken:

  […]

I am failing to reproduce this now, but I'll keep posting news as I find them.


¹) well, since -a was dropped:

     dpkg --get-selections | sed -rne 
's,([^[:space:]]+)[[:space:]]+install$,\1,p' \
       | xargs dpkg-reconfigure -u

Closing as this seems to have been unreproducible.
