I see the same here.

In my case the reason was fc-cache was failing because of a very very
old directory /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 containing old left over fonts.

After removal of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 the installation of plymouth and
update-initramfs started to work again.

I've archived the directory in case someone wants to play with it and
its contents.

Could you add "set -x" to the top of
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth to get a clear picture where
exactly the hook fails?

Grüße,
Sven.
