Hi,

(I did not get your original email for some reason I don't quite
understand... I only saw your reply in the bugtracker just now.
Therefore sorry for replying so late.)

> The change proposed is the wrong fix - it does nothing to help once the

I don't understand what you are saying here. Is there any problem
with the patch I've provided?

Note that if you run both commands I provided with either
initramfs-tools or dracut installed, the initrds for all
installed kernels will be regenerated (just tested it).

> trigger support it already knows.

What trigger support? /usr/sbin/update-initramfs-tools is owned
by the initramfs-tools package and dracut doesn't provide that
tool - currently, vmdebootstrap does nothing if dracut is used
for the initramfs (update-initramfs doesn't exist, therefore
vmdebootstrap won't call anything).

I'm sorry, but I'm really not grokking anything in your reply.

Regards,
Christian
