After looking around and chatting with  nvo, here is what is needed to
fix this problem :

1) Add a dependancy to the linux-crashdump meta package to the 
makedumpfile-static package
2) Modify the /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-bottom/0_kdump script to 
use the static version of makedumpfile (patch in the work)
3) Do a MIR request to have makedumpfile-static included in MAIN

I need to find out if the MIR needs to be a separated Bug request
