** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Description changed:

  [impact]
  
  setting MODULES=list in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf results in
  an error/warning when running update-initramfs
  
  [test case]
  
  edit initramfs.conf to change MODULES=list and run update-initramfs:
  
  $ grep MODULES /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf
  # MODULES: [ most | netboot | dep | list ]
  MODULES=list
  $ sudo update-initramfs -u
  update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.8.0-48-generic
  find: ‘/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_Yr04uh/lib/modules/5.8.0-48-generic/kernel’: No 
such file or directory
  
  [regression potential]
  
  any regression would likely result in an initramfs that did not include
  the correct/required modules, and/or failure to build a new initramfs
  
  [scope]
  
- this is needed for g and earlier.
+ this is needed for f and g.
  
  this is not fixed in debian, but is fixed in h and i.
+ 
+ the code in b is different and doesn't include this bug, so this doesn't
+ apply to b.
  
  for debian, MR open:
  https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/initramfs-tools/-/merge_requests/48
  
  [other info]
  
  this caused some of the 'amd64-*' autopkgtests to fail in h until it was
  fixed. those autopkgtests don't exist in g and earlier so this was not
  noticed until now.
