Bug#804247: Please update initramfs in postinst

[Steve McIntyre]

Package: reiserfsprogs
Version: 1:3.6.24-1
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

Hi!

Since the move to systemd as the default init system, the initramfs
will attempt to fsck and mount both / and /usr (where applicable). To
aid this, initramfs-tools will copy necessary filesystem tools into
the initramfs when it is generated.

To make this work well, all filesystem tools packages for filesystems
that are likely to be used for / and/or /usr should call
"update-initramfs -u" in their postinst. This will

 (a) ensure that necesssary fsck tools are included in the initramfs
 generated by debian-installer (see #801961 for an example failure
 here); and
 (b) ensure that bug fixes to fsck tools get included immediately in
 the initramfs

I've checked your package and I don't see any update-initramfs
calls. Please add one, if you consider reiserfs to be a
likely/sensible option as a base (/ or /usr) filesystem. If you'd like
help doing that postinst work, I can supply a patch - just ask!

And yes - I've seen that you've recently added an initramfs hook for
reiserfsprogs but AFAICS that won't necessarily get called unless you
excplicitly run the update-initramfs command yourself.
