[Bug 984688] Re: initramfs-tools depends on initramfs-tools-bin (<< 0.99ubuntu11.1~)

 

Andy, you probably already solved this, but just in case.

In your log it says you have this
Version of initramfs-tools-bin on system is 0.99ubuntu13.5

The the corresponding 0.99ubuntu13.5 packages are available in
http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/initramfs-tools/

So just replace the 13.1 in Chris' instructions with 13.5 and it'll
work. Since you already have initramfs-tools-bin installed, you probably
need only install initramfs-tools.
