By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Jeff Taylor 2012-01-23 15:51:45 CST 
When performing do-release-upgrade from trinity maverick to natty, the upgrade fails with initramfs unable to generate the new kernel images.  To resolve this issue, perform the following:

# apt-get -r smartcardauth
# apt-get upgrade

The upgrade process will now finish, allowing the user to reboot into the new kernel.

Please note - this issue appears to be limited to something within the trinity build.  When performing this same upgrade from maverick to natty recently on ubuntu servers that did not have a GUI installed, there were no problems with initramfs.

Closing this report due to lack of response and age.
