Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.47.1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Hi,
After upgrade my system and installing a new kernel my system would fail while
booting because the initramfs image was missing the klibc library.
The last version of libklibc has moved the library from /usr/lib/klibc/lib to
/lib and mkinitramfs does not look there.
Attached is a patch which fixes this.
