It's a contradiction to say the bug is serious because of a missing

cause != solution;
apart from that.. well, it should be common sense that on any valid
debian system (and a debian system consisting of essential packages only
is perfectly valid), a simple 'apt-get install $package' should never
fail and if it does, it's a serious bug.
dracut fails in that most simplest case.
you wanted to know a reference of the policy to justify the rc severity,
i gave you an applicable on.
It's just a missing test to do nothing if there's no kernel
available. Therefore it's a normal bug IMO.
it doesn't matter how small the omission is, the effect is what counts,
and that is that dracut is generically not installable.
