Title:
  compcache is not working if COMPCACHE_SIZE contains whitespaces

Status in “initramfs-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Since initramfs-tools-0.99ubuntu5 is working out of the box, but:
  compcache is not working if COMPCACHE_SIZE, in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf contains whitespaces.
  While instructions in same file instructs to do exactly that.

  Elimination whitespaces solves the problem.
  I recommend updating as following:

   # You can optionally install the compcache package to configure this setting
