- initramfs-tools:
- Triaged and proposed fix for mkinitramfs fails with copy_file binary ‘/libgcc_s.so.[1-9]’ not found. Got no upstream feedback. So released the fix in 0.142ubuntu35 to plucky after getting poked by @schopin
- Triaged /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools exited with return code 1 which turned out to be another instance of crypto-miner malware infection
