This can be easily reproduced by having files or directories that
contain spaces in "/"
The sequence of the problem is below:
In /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs:
87 # Check that we're using a new enough kernel version, first for ourselves,
88 # then for each of the hooks, which can have a MINKVER variable defined
89 check_minkver ${version}
90 check_minkver ${version} /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks
91 check_minkver ${version} ${CONFDIR}/hooks
The "check_minkver ${version}" calls without a second paramter.
In /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions
set_initlist was called whether or not a second parameter was given to
check_minkver
In /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions:
set_initlist()
{
unset initlist
for si_x in ${initdir}/*; do
if [ ! -x ${si_x} ]; then
continue
fi
initlist="${initlist} $(basename ${si_x})"
done
}
$(initdir} is empty so it became "/*" and resulted in the bug
