Hello all,

This issue was fixed by initramfs-tools version 0.143 in experimental.
I have just uploaded version 0.143.1 to unstable, so you should be able
to get the fix through a regular upgrade in a few hours (if using
unstable) or days (if using testing).

I've tested it and seems to work fine for me. Thanks!

With initramfs-tools 0.143.1, without any configurations (in particular without the MODULES=dep) I see:

        122M    initrd.img-6.9.12-amd64
        122M    initrd.img-6.9.9-amd64

And if I uninstall the firmware-nvidia-graphics that I don't need, it's back to it's ~80M:

        82M     initrd.img-6.9.12-amd64
        82M     initrd.img-6.9.9-amd64

I mounted a tmpfs on /boot to do these tests, as otherwise it gets tricky with the space :)

I'll continue using MODULES=dep for now, as that makes more than 2 kernels fit in the /boot partition, and apt handles than great in that case (uninstalls the third, etc.).


Thanks again!

Rodrigo
