[Bug 1483975] Re: update-initramfs complains about missing /sbin/fsck.btrfs

[Guy Rouillier]

I'm still seeing this message in Ubuntu Mate 20.04 on December 22,2020:

"W: /sbin/fsck.btrfs doesn't exist, can't install to initramfs"

Has the released fix just not been incorporated into the distros after
18 months?

Title:
  update-initramfs complains about missing /sbin/fsck.btrfs

Status in btrfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in btrfs-tools package in Debian:
  Fix Released
Status in initramfs-tools package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  /sbin/fsck.btrfs moved to /bin/fsck.btrfs with btrfs-tools 4.0-2
  (http://bugs.debian.org/784234), which causes

  $ sudo update-initramfs -u
  update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.1.0-3-generic
  Warning: /sbin/fsck.btrfs doesn't exist, can't install to initramfs, ignoring.

  I assume this means that fsck won’t run on a btrfs /, which seems bad.
