Title:
  "dpkg-reconfigure --all" invokes update-initramfs(8) multiple times

Status in “initramfs-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

  On a minimal text-mode-only install of Gutsy (i.e. ubuntu-minimal +
  ubuntu-standard), "dpkg-reconfigure --all" causes update-initramfs(8)
  to be invoked no less than 10 times. Moreover, this was running on a
  fairly old (Pentium II) system, and so significantly slowed down the
  reconfiguration process (as each initrd update took ~2 minutes).

  Initrd updates should be deferred in a situation like this, so that
  update-initramfs(8) is invoked only once at the end of the
  reconfiguration process.
