[Bug 330455] [NEW] Please document or specify proper update-initramfs usage

Public bug reported:

Hi,

packages such as udev update the current initramfs onupgrades to include
the latest udev in it, but they don't update all initrds.

packages such as bootchart will update all initramfs on upgrades to
allow bootcharting all kernels.

I believe the intent of udev preserving older working initrds is broken
by the bootchart case.  Either we should always keep older initrds
untouched or we should always update all.

I'd like Ubuntu Policy to recommend proper behavior here.

Bye
