/var/lib/dpkg/info/dracut.postinst has following code:
```
mk_initrd() {
if ls /boot/vmlinu[zx]-* >/dev/null 2>&1; then
# Regenerate initramfs for all kernel that are installed
for kversion in `ls /boot/vmlinu[zx]-* | sed -e 's#/boot/vmlinu.-##'`;
do
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/dracut $kversion
done
fi
}
```
/var/lib/dpkg/info/initramfs-tools.postinst has following code in
contrast:
```
DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_PACKAGE='' update-initramfs -u
```
dracut.postinst should only update the initrd for the latest kernels and
the ones that are missing, but do not update old ones.
