[Bug 1473812] [NEW] dirname not available in initramfs

 

Public bug reported:

There is a call to dirname on line 11 of /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot, but dirname is not included in the initramfs.
This doesn't seem to cause any problems on a new system, but it caused me some problems when trying to debug some changes I made to my initramfs.
