| Message-ID | <AU3Jg-8rw-7@gated-at.bofh.it> |
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.139
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: Florian.LaRoche@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer,
I've seen the following warning with current initramfs-tools from
Debian testing:
No gzip in /usr/bin:/sbin:/bin, using gzip
Seems the warning is giving the wrong compress program name.
Here a patch to fix this:
--- mkinitramfs
+++ mkinitramfs
@@ -170,8 +170,8 @@
unset COMPRESS
if ! command -v "${compress}" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
- compress=gzip
echo "No ${compress} in ${PATH}, using gzip"
+ compress=gzip
fi
case "${compress}" in
best regards,
thanks for initramfs-tools to maintainers,
Florian La Roche
