Allan, bsdz: thanks for the workaround(s). However, workarounds don't get to the heart of fixing the problem, which is what bug reports are intended to do. Rest assured, the people that need to fix this are working on it, hence the triage and assignment, and I would expect this to be fixed very soon.
For those that would want to use this workaround, that would be done at their own risk, and those workarounds could be undone and unnecessitated by package updates. My best advice, especially if you're running Jammy, is to just wait it out and it will get fixed. These types of problems don't go unnoticed, and certainly don't stick around for long. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1964814 Title: linux-firmware fails to upgrade to 20220314.gitcd01f857-0ubuntu1 Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux-firmware source package in Jammy: Confirmed Bug description: linux-firmware fails to upgrade with: unable to open '/lib/firmware/ath11k/WCN6855/hw2.0/regdb.bin.dpkg- new': No such file or directory $ sudo apt dist-upgrade Reading package lists...
