I built a package with this for Debian and Ubuntu. The Debian reporter
in https://bugs.debian.org/772182 confirmed that this is working, I
think/hope the Ubuntu reporter in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1399595 is also usually very
responsive, I think he'll report back soon too. So it fixes that
problem, thanks!

However, in my VM with no GPT, but a simple fstab entry for the swap
booting now hangs forever, swap.target doesn't become active any more.
I don't have time right now to investigate this further, but I suppose
this should be fairly easy to reproduce.

Thanks,

Martin
