If think this is the faulty code of apport in data/general-hooks/ubuntu.py
if report['Package'] != 'initramfs-tools':
# update-initramfs emits this when it fails, usually invoked from
the linux-image postinst
# https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/DebuggingUpdateErrors
if 'DpkgTerminalLog' in report and re.search(r'^update-initramfs:
failed for ', report['DpkgTerminalLog'], re.MULTILINE):
# File these reports on the initramfs-tools package instead
report['SourcePackage'] = 'initramfs-tools'
The regex is applied to the full term.log, not only the last
installation session, and thus it catches a previous failure, not the
one triggering the report.
