[Bug 2071807] Re: blkid --match-types has no effect

[Benjamin Drung]

It is correct behavior according to https://github.com/util-linux/util-
linux/issues/3111

So initramfs-tools need to be changed.

** Package changed: util-linux (Ubuntu) => initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)

Bug description:
  --match-types seems to have no effect:

  ```
  $ blkid

  ```

  I expect blkid will fail if the type does not match.

  This behavior is the same on 22.04 and 24.04 and 24.10 (util-linux
  2.39.3-9ubuntu6).
