Try: apt-cache policy linux-image-amd64 Here's the output of that from my system, only slightly anonymized, for comparison: > linux-image-amd64: > Installed: 6.1.90-1 > Candidate: 6.1.90-1 > Version table: > *** 6.1.90-1 500 > 500 http://security.debian.org bookworm-security/main amd64 Packages > 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status > 6.1.76-1 500 > 500 https://mirror.debian.example/debian bookworm/main amd64 Packages > 6.1.67-1 500 > 500 https://mirror.debian.example/debian bookworm-updates/main amd64 > Packages I also double-checked, and 6.1.0-13 is indeed the ABI version immediately preceding the kernel bugs incident. The kernels affected by that in mainline Debian were 6.1.0-14/6.1.64* and 6.1.0-15/6.1.66*; the latter by unrelated bug #1057967 which may or may not affect you. This further reinforces my belief that the problem is likely to be an errant apt pin meant to exclude those kernels from being installed accidentally, and which ended up matching too much. (The other obvious possibility would be that the mirror you're using stopped updating around that time, but frankly that seems less likely, especially if you are seeing the same behavior across two different hosting providers.) -- Michael Kjörling 🔗 https://michael.kjorling.se “Remember when, on the Internet, nobody cared that you were a dog?”
