Yes, I've just hit this too, trying to install a newer linux-image package in my sid chroot, and I concur with your analysis: this looks like an incomplete move and I don't understand how this could possibly work without an accompanying change in the shell script, like the one you suggested. I'm not seeing any bugfixes in the Git repository, maybe I'll NMU this package later tonight, fixing both installability and upgradability, including for reverse dependencies… Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois (k...@debian.org) <https://debamax.com/> D-I release manager -- Release team member -- Freelance Consultant
