[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: initramfs-tools-core
Version: 0.142
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

mkinitramfs reports a series of errors of this kind:
/sbin/modprobe not found
depmod not found

I'm attaching a file of the output.

Is this bug related to the usr-merge problem?

Ciao.
Gigi.

Yes, upstream (Debian) is moving *everything* from /bin /sbin /lib to
their /usr counterparts ( /usr/bin /usr/sbin ..) to mitigate problems
between usrmerge layout and dpkg [1].

Expect /bin /sbin /lib in your unmerged system to become empty very
soon.

Merged /usr is now enforced by base-files 13devuan4 and handled by debootstrap
1.0.134devuan2. Both of these versions are present in ceres and excalibur:

 base-files  | 13devuan4      | excalibur  | source, all
 base-files  | 13devuan4      | unstable   | source, all
 debootstrap | 1.0.134devuan2 | excalibur  | source, all
 debootstrap | 1.0.134devuan2 | unstable   | source, all

Golinux also posted an announcement[1] on the forum.

Therefore I am closing these reports as fixed.

Mark
