[Splashy-devel] Bug#578836: splashy: Tries to run non-existant depmod in initrd

[Florian Ragwitz]

Package: splashy
Version: 0.3.13-5.1+b1
Severity: normal


When putting splashy into the initrd, the script
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-premount/libsplashy assumes depmod is
available. However, /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/libsplashy doesn't ensure
it is actually there by copying the binary over when creating the ramdisk.
