[Bug 1860683] Re: initramfs hang after today's updates

[DLCBurggraaff]

It definitely is the initramfs. After successfully mounting the root
filesystem (sda10) the following messages are displayed:

-- /scripts/init-bottom/udev: line 25: nuke: not found
-- done.
-- init: line 303: run-init: not found
-- Target filesystem does not have requested /sbin/init.
-- init: line 303: run-init: not found (5*)
-- No init found. Try passing init= bootarg.

Yesterday's ext?fs updates triggered an initramfs rebuild. After restoring my backup I reran those updates and had a good look at the initramfs rebuild messages. I saw a complaint about a missing /lib/klibc-*.so file. And indeed that file is missing.
I copied the /lib/klibc-wBFLvVtxy4xJqEadIBJMa78iJz8.so from an other Xubuntu installation and reran things: *problem resolved*.

  initramfs hang after today's updates

  Invalid

Bug description:
  Xubuntu 18.04.3 updated yesterday (Jan 22, 2020).
  Today's (Jan 23, 2020) updates cause initramfs to hang.
  Luckily I can restore my Jan 19, 2020 backup.
  I assume the ext{2,3,4} updates to be the culprit.
  Anyone else having this problem?
  :D
