[Bug 811056] [NEW] compcache doesn't work

[Stanislav German-Evtushenko]

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 10.10

/etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf: COMPCACHE_SIZE="1 G" or
COMPCACHE_SIZE="50 %" doesn't work because of using bash construction in
udev rules.

The problem is in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/compcache:
RUN+="/sbin/rzscontrol /dev/ramzswap0 --disksize_kb="$kbytes" --init &&
/sbin/swapon -p 100 /dev/ramzswap0 2>/dev/null". Quotes and '&' doesn't
work in udev rules. I think this is needed to be moved to separate
script instead of inline usage.
