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.

/usr/sbin/mkinitramfs: 439: depmod: not found

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
