Package: dropbear
Version: 0.53.1-1
Severity: important

The initramfs hook fails to copy libnss_* to the initramfs image. In my case,
this makes my server unbootable since I need to login using ssh to unlock
the root file system (reason for important).

Updating /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/dropbear with the following patch
solves this bug for me.
