Bug Description

Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

I think "export panic" is typo.
It should be "export panic=".

Are you talking about line 44 in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/init? I believe panic is a function and not a variable, it's defined in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions.

I looked at the init file in the /initrd file, and they seem to be same files.
The line of export is "export panic=" in Debian etch's initramfs-tools.
Which is correct?

The current version in Ubuntu 8.10 has 'export panic='. ('export panic' is not wrong, though; it exports the variable which is empty by default, unless overridden in the environment.)
