Bug#684423: live-tools: Broken link ( /usr/sbin/update-initramfs -> ../bin/live-update-initramfs )

Package: live-tools
Version: 3.0.7-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

live-tools is shipped with broken link
/usr/sbin/update-initramfs -> ../bin/live-update-initramf
which break an automatic initrd images generation and update.

Changing the link to
/usr/sbin/update-initramfs -> /bin/live-update-initramf
restores lost functionality.

Best regards,
Viktor Malyarchuk

Which breaks "unrelated" software (linux kernel packages) and is thus
grave. Thank you *so* much for breaking stuff, again.
