If I try to run update-initramfs while busybox is not installed, I get an error 
message:

       E: busybox is required but not installed
       E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/busybox failed with return 1.

This happens irrespective of the BUSYBOX setting in 
/etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf.

You have another package installed (maybe cryptsetup) that requires
busybox to work in the initramfs.

Try this:

      grep -r BUSYBOX /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d

Ben.

Yes, I have cryptsetup installed, but this problem appeared only
after upgrading initramfs-tools to version 0.121.

This change is related to #783297.  cryptsetup *requires* busybox in
the initramfs.  If you don't have an encrypted root or /usr then you
can get away without it.  Assuming that's the case, I'm reassigning
this to cryptsetup as there is an existing request to separate out the
initramfs support.

Ben.

Hmm... I have an encrypted root, and it works somehow without busybox.
