Sure it is. $ dpkg -S /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf initramfs-tools-core: /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf The old default of BUSYBOX=y (which then meant 'use busybox if available') was changed to BUSYBOX=auto on upgrade to version 0.121. But it's possible that this isn't always handled properly because an upgrade to 0.121 or later also moves this conffile from initramfs-tools to initramfs-tools-core. That was also reported in #822671, for which I still need to review the patch. Is this perhaps the same bug? Ben. -- Ben Hutchings When in doubt, use brute force. - Ken Thompson
