Title:
  flash-kernel uses mkimage but u-boot-tools is not installed

Status in “flash-kernel” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  raring armv7l
  lxc 0.9.0~rc1-0ubuntu1
  flash-kernel 3.0~rc.4ubuntu29

  After installation of an armhf lxc guest on an armv7l host, update-initramfs will fail with the following error (bug 1160360):
  =====
  Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
  update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.8.0-14-generic
  flash-kernel: installing version 3.8.0-14-generic
  Generating kernel u-boot image... /usr/sbin/flash-kernel: 214: /usr/sbin/flash-kernel: mkimage: not found
  run-parts: /etc/initramfs/post-update.d//flash-kernel exited with return code 127
  dpkg: error processing initramfs-tools (--configure):
   subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   initramfs-tools
  =====

  flash-kernel uses mkimage from u-boot-tools but only suggests this
  package.
