For sid, the source package appears to have been changed from
'linux-signed-amd64' to 'linux'. Could that be causing this issue?
I guess so. What is the reason of this change ?
Would it be possible to change the dependency to:
linux-image-6.18.3+deb14-amd64 | linux-image-6.18.3+deb14-amd64-unsigned
instead?
Not sure it is a good idea. It could lead to the installation of an
unsigned kernel while a signed kernel was expected. This would make the
system unbootable with secure boot.
This is normal for short while. FTP master will need to trigger the
codesigning service, at which point then we will get the signed images
as well.
Is it really normal to update the kernel meta-package before the signed
kernel package the new version depends on is available ?
