Title:
update-initramfs hook copy_exec won't overwrite
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions bails out if copy_exec is
called twice with the same target path.
What I want to do is:
copy_exec /usr/bin/btrfsctl /sbin
copy_exec /usr/local/bin/btrfsctl /sbin
And have the second one win. This way I can eventually use btrfs-
tools once it's up to date (and no longer a moving target upstream),
while still using the current version compiled from git on a very
frequent basis.
The current behavior will silently break the boot when one or the
other ceases to exist at best, and end up including a potentially
broken utility in the worst case.
