[Unit 193 <1109029@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The reason it conflicts is because it seemingly used to ship /usr/sbin
/update-initramfs, See: https://bugs.debian.org/729809.  Other than this
alt dep, it looks like parts of plymouth would need to be merged, and
dracut patched for plymouth not being in /usr.

Bug description:
  Many core packages depend on initramfs-tools when they should actually
  depend on linux-initramfs-tools (virtual package provided by
  initramfs-tools and dracut).

  Debian seems to be using "Depends: initramfs-tools | linux-initramfs-
  tools" for almost every relevant package.

  See also bug #1108987, which is about the fact that dracut shouldn't
  conflict with initramfs-tools.
