Package: linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64 Version: 2.6.32-35squeeze1 After an apt-get upgrade today, I wasn't able to boot anymore, lvm complains that can't find libncurses.so.5, and it's right, the only libncurses.so.5 file in initrd.img-2.6.32-5-amd64 is in /32bit/usr/lib/libncurses.so.5.
Note that: $ file libncurses.so.5 libncurses.so.5: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, stripped I solved by patching initrd.img-2.6.32-5-amd64 with a symlink to the proper path: /lib. That's the second time it happens after an upgrade. I don't have records of the first one.
