Already suspected such a thing. But it's not related to the live
system but to the installation time. In more recent Debian
installations that symlink is there by default. Keyword here is
"usrmerge" or "merged /usr". But it's usefulness and sanity are
debated.

Salsa seems still broken. :-/ Had to do my last upload without pushing
to Salsa first, too.

Anyway, I appreciated your prompt response! Thanks!

Regards, Axel

Hi Axel,

Thanks for reporting the bug and the fix.

I've checked why it works on my system. I've tested the package on a Debian
Live environment where /bin is symlink to /usr/bin. \o/

Your fix proposal is correct.
I'll push it to Salsa ASAP.

Thanks for your time!

Bug#1006557: toybox: Causes initramfs-tools trigger to fail without giving a reason

2022-02-27 Thread Axel Beckert 
Package: toybox
Version: 0.8.6+dfsg-2
Severity: serious

Hi,

since I upgraded toybox to 0.8.6+dfsg-2, the initramfs-tools trigger
fails on my machine:

Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.140) ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.16.0-3-amd64
E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/zy-toybox failed with return 1.
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-5.16.0-3-amd64 with 1.
dpkg: error processing package initramfs-tools (--configure):
 installed initramfs-tools package post-installation script subprocess returned 
error exit status 1

Unfortunately /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/zy-toybox doesn't note
what exactly went wrong.

I've added a "set -x" to /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/zy-toybox and
it fails as follows:

~ # dpkg --configure -a
Setting up initramfs-tools (0.140) ...
update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)

update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-5.16.0-3-amd64 with 1.

Changing

  TB_BIN=/usr/bin/toybox

to

  TB_BIN=/bin/toybox

fixes this.
