Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.92e
Severity: normal


While there are multiple calls to usplash in initramfs functions there
is no support for splashy. On systems that spend substantial part of
boot in the initramfs this is inadequate.

I attach a patch that should solve the problem but ideally the script
should be reworked so that the presence of splash solutions is tested
only in one place.

Thanks

Michal

thanks a lot for the provided patch.

Splashy will not be released with upcomming Squeeze and I do not expect
a lot of activity later on. You'll find a branch "maks/nuke_usplash"
http://git.debian.org/?p=kernel/initramfs-tools.git;a=summary
where any usplash ref is gone. Anyway out of scope of this bug.

Closing in order to further clean up initramfs-tools bugreports.

best wishes for 2011
