[Bug 1561643] Re: initramfs-tools ignores the FRAMEBUFFER option

[Wladimir Mutel]

Dear Thadeu,
I tested your patch and it seems to be working well
on my i386 system it reduced initrd from 8.1 to 2.9 MB
but does it have a chance to be integrated into Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic ? 
Or I should wait for Ubuntu 20.04 ?
Now it is not even integrated into Ub. 18.10 Cosmic
