[Bug 2121793] [NEW] autopkgtest does not check the installed version

 

Public bug reported:

The unmkinitramfs autopkgtest for initramfs-tools/0.150ubuntu1 failed
with "3cpio: not found". What? That is a new dependency that I declared.
Then I started debugging until I looked for the installation of
initramfs-tools-core this:

```
179s The following packages will be REMOVED:
179s   systemd-resolved-dnssec
179s The following packages have been kept back:
179s   initramfs-tools initramfs-tools-core
```

Full log:

questing/questing/amd64/i/initramfs-tools/20250828_194325_31699@/log.gz

Can autopkgtest please check that the version of the binaries provided
the the package under test matches the version of the package under test
please? Otherwise it does not test what it claims to test.
