cpio: ./lib/plymouth/
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.
Failed to create initrd image.

plymouth (0.8.1-4ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low
* Don't fail if --attach-to-session is passed and /dev/pts isn't mounted initramfs- tools/hooks/ plymouth: if we don't have a default.plymouth
yet, as this breaks booting without an initramfs.
* debian/
link, don't try to copy the graphics support since the libs aren't needed
and may not even be installed. LP: #554566.
