After un-installing initramfs-tools (with help of --force-depends), and then re-installing it, I again got a 0.92b version (even though I am in 10.04). After removing my workaround (aaamdadm) and re-generating the initramfs (using update-initramfs), everything works fine now.

The weird thing is, now it also needed an initramfs-tools-bin package (which wasn't there before).

So what happened? Did my upgrade from 9.04 to 10.04 fail to "upgrade" initramfs-tools due to the missing initramfs-tools-bin package? But then, why is the "new" version number (0.92b) less than the old one (0.93.2)?

Or was there indeed a faulty 0.93.2 package that was later retracted, and my apt-get update's didn't pick up the retraction due to the lower version number?

Inquiring minds want to know...
