Bug#599168: linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64: configure script invokes mkinitrd.yaird then fails, even after package yaird has been purged from system

2010-10-05 Thread Joel Roth
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-15
Severity: important


I have a different, working kernel, but each apt-get install
is delayed as apt-get tries to configure 
the linux-image package.

Setting up linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64 (2.6.32-15) ...
Running depmod.
Running /usr/sbin/mkinitrd.yaird.
mkinitrd.yaird: invalid option -- 't'
Terminating...
/usr/sbin/mkinitrd.yaird failed to create initrd image.
Failed to create initrd image

Even after I installed initramfs-tools and purged yaird,
the configure script attempted to invoke mkinitrd.yaird.

As a workaround, I created the initrd.img file manually
using update-initramfs, then installed a dummy
mkinitrd.yaird script containing only 'exit 0'. 

The next configure run succeeded.

known, as yaird is no longer supported. Please deinstall yaird and
make sure you have no reference of it in /etc/kernel-img.conf

initramfs-tools is the default these days. if you need a small
initramfs you can tweek it with BUSYBOX=no and MODULES=dep for
the adventorous. :)

kind regards
