After some LLM interaction, I found that the package was being diverted,
causing dpkg to become unable to upgrade the update-initramfs script. It's
probably on me for running some script in the past that might've caused this
issue but again I'm not sure which one.
```
$ dpkg -S /usr/sbin/update-initramfs
local diversion from: /usr/sbin/update-initramfs
local diversion to: /usr/sbin/update-initramfs.distrib
initramfs-tools: /usr/sbin/update-initramfs
$ dpkg -L initramfs-tools | grep update-initramfs
/etc/initramfs-tools/update-initramfs.conf
/usr/sbin/update-initramfs
locally diverted to: /usr/sbin/update-initramfs.distrib
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/update-initramfs
/usr/share/man/man5/update-initramfs.conf.5.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/update-initramfs.8.gz
```
The following commands removed the diversion and I was able to upgrade the
script normally.
```
sudo dpkg-divert --remove --rename /usr/sbin/update-initramfs
```
** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)
