severity 657754 serious
thanks
Thomas,
the correct severity for this bug is serious. Basically, any package
needs to install properly, doing the following (disregard that /proc
isn't mounted an other stuff which doesn't matter in this case):
debootstrap sid sid http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/
chroot sid apt-get install dracut
fails, because /usr/sbin/dracut which gets invoked through postinst
depends on having at least one kernel image installed without declaring
a depends to it (policy 3.5; missing depends, so to speak).
of course, the right fix is not to add a depends to a (virtual) kernel
image package, but to make dracut handle gracefully and simply do
nothing when no installed kernel can be found (like initramfs-tools and
many other kernel related packages do).
Regards,
Daniel
