Changelog

initramfs-tools (0.142ubuntu11) mantic; urgency=medium

  * Use dracut-install in manual_add_modules to speed up mkinitramfs
    significantly (LP: #2031185)
  * Install tty/serial kernel modules. Dracut is doing the same. (LP: #2019435)
  * Harmonize kernel module installation with dracut's behavior (LP: #2031841):
    - Use the symbol regex from dracut-install to reduce the unnessary block
      and net kernel modules.
    - Install all usb/typec kernel modules instead of cherry-picking some.
    - Do not install ARM/RISCV specific modules on other architectures.
