Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.93.2
Severity: important
update-initramfs breaks since /etc/mtab is a symlink to /proc/mounts on this
system.
The normal Debian init scripts (like mtab.sh) take special care to continue
working in that case and the initramfs-tools documentation does not
mention this case to be unsupported, so I'm assuming it's supposed to work
(thus severity important instead of wishlist).
Error encountered (during update):
