Subject: initramfs-tools: initrd image not successfully loading for kernel built with gcc-10

From: Arthur Marsh <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2020 12:33:57 +1030

Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.136
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

Attempting to boot a kernel built with gcc-10 on amd64 platform

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

reverting to gcc-9, building kernel for i386 on gcc-10 worked

   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I can supply a built package if there is an upload location that I can use.
