#56038 — Bug#847343: firmware-misc-nonfree: breaks update-initramfs

FromBen Caradoc-Davies <ben@transient.nz>

SubjectBug#847343: firmware-misc-nonfree: breaks update-initramfs
Message-ID<sLJcR-8nG-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
Package: firmware-misc-nonfree
Version: 20161130-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

the following upgrade breaks update-initramfs:

firmware-amd-graphics (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-atheros (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-brcm80211 (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-linux (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-linux-nonfree (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-misc-nonfree (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)
firmware-realtek (20160824-1 => 20161130-1)

Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.125) ...

Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.24-8) ...

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Adding "set -x" to the plymouth hook results in a flood that ends with the
following, implicating firmware-misc-nonfree:

+ ln -rs /var/tmp/mkinitramfs_tAZsDU//lib/firmware/nvidia/gm200/gr/gpccs_bl.bin
/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_tAZsDU//lib/firmware/nvidia/gm206/gr/gpccs_bl.bin
+ src=/lib/firmware/nvidia/gm200/gr/gpccs_bl.bin
+ target=/lib/firmware/nvidia/gm200/gr/gpccs_bl.bin
+ [ -e /var/tmp/mkinitramfs_tAZsDU//lib/firmware/nvidia/gm200/gr/gpccs_bl.bin ]
+ return 1
E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth failed with return 1.
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-4.8.0-2-amd64 with 1.
dpkg: error processing package initramfs-tools (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 initramfs-tools
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Downgrading the above firmware packages immediately triggers a successful
update-initramfs.

Kind regards,
Ben.

#56044

FromBen Caradoc-Davies <ben@transient.nz>
Date2016-12-07 23:40 +0100
Message-ID<sLT2x-63V-5@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#56038
This is the same bug reported in #847340 against initramfs-tools:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=847340

The problem is in initramfs-tools; firmware-misc-nonfree is just the 
trigger. Rather than merging, I would like to leave this bug against 
firmware-misc-nonfree to protect apt-listbugs users from the breakage 
upgrading firmware-misc-nonfree triggers.

Kind regards,
