Comment 26 for bug 9208

I just did a dist-upgrade to my Warty system to get among other things, the
linux-image package. This bug stops synaptic from configuring packages. This
is where it gets ugly. I no longer had an initrd.img.

Synaptic reports that there were errors and to scroll up to see them. A typical
user would probably distregard the samba symlinks error. Had I not noticed that
my initrd image was missing before turning off my computer it would have been
left in an unbootable state.

I corrected the symlinks manually and did a sudo apt-get -f install and my
initrd image was recreated by the configuration of the linux-image package.

Does this bug need to be increased in severity because of this?
