Description: 
 initramfs-tools - tools for generating an initramfs
Changes: 
 initramfs-tools (0.40ubuntu30) dapper; urgency=low
 .
   * This release brought to you by Fujitsu hard drives, which have forced
     me to rewrite all my most recent initramfs-tools changes from memory.
   * Include arcmsr module in the scsi module list (launchpad.net/40075)
   * Abstract out the kernel minversion checking stuff into the function
     library, so we can reuse it to check minversion requirements for hook
     scripts as well (such as udev, which requires >= 2.6.15 in dapper)
   * Bump the kernel minversion to 2.6.15 on hppa and ia64, since they used
     initrd-tools with their 2.6.12 kernels in breezy, not initramfs-tools.
   * If mkinitramfs fails due to minversion not being met, don't bail out
     of update-initramfs, but just exit 0, so upgrades don't halt on it.
   * Conditionalise the use of lvm and md in mkinitramfs so it's a no-op if
     you don't have those packages installed, but allows for smooth upgrades
     if you have older versions that don't ship their own hooks yet.
   * Make prereqs conditional on the script/hook actually existing.  From
     now on, this means that 'PREREQ="udev"' means "run udev first, iff it
     happens to be installed".  Having the files exist on the filesystem if
     you have a HARD dependency should be enforced with package dependencies.
   * Add ohci1394 and sbp2 to the scsi module list (launchpad.net/37479)
   * Move framebuffer setup from usplash to scripts/local-top/framebuffer
     so that people booting with vga=1234 but no splash will still get a
     framebuffer instead of a useless black console (launchpad.net/27669)
