You mean this comment:

   Couldn't file triggers be used, so ldconfig is triggered after any
   package installs a library file? That's much more how I expected
   triggers to be used, rather than needing an ugly ldconfig wrapper. I
   think it also addresses drow's point about libraries in nonstandard
   locations, since those packages could just run ldconfig as usual.
   Meanwhile, packages installing libraries to standard locations could
   stop calling ldconfig.

?

That's about ldconfig.  It doesn't really make sense for
update-initramfs because the set of files which might need to activate
the trigger is all of the files which are copied into the initramfs.
The resulting list is (a) large, (b) hard to compute and (c) not
fixed.

Ian.
