Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.144
Followup-For: Bug #1079150
X-Debbugs-Cc: josel.seg...@gmx.es
Dear Maintainer,
I was facing this problem and in order to avoid it, I updated initramfs-tools
to the latest version.
Sadly, it is unable to regenerate the initramfs properly due to a different
problem related to the reiserfsprogs hook.
```
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools:
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.10.6-amd64
cp: cannot stat '/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_zoQopR//usr/sbin/reiserfsck': Too many
levels of symbolic links
ln: failed to create symbolic link
'/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_zoQopR/sbin/reiserfsck': File exists
cp: cannot stat '/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_zoQopR//usr/sbin/reiserfsck': Too many
levels of symbolic links
E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/reiserfsprogs failed with return 1.
```
After commenting out the line where the reiserfsprogs hook was trying to copy
reiserfsck, I was able to generate a valid initramfs that allowed me to boot
normally.
I have the impression that, even fixing this problem, the newest version
introduced a different bug.
