[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#589834: cryptsetup: postinst should issue upgrade-initramfs for all kernels

[Jan Muszynski]

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.1.3-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Pretty much as the subject states. The postinst script issues "update-initramfs -u". This updates the initramfs for only the current kernel. I would think that you want to update all the kernel initramfs's. The patch is simple enough. Change the command to "update-initramfs -ukall". So simple it's not even worth generating a diff file :)

The old version (at least usually) works well enough which is why, I suspect, this hasn't been caught until now. (Seems the script has been that way for quite a while). That doesn't make it correct. On the other hand maybe I'm missing something, in which case please explain and then kill the bug.

TIA
