Hello debian-boot, Cyril,
It happened again: the kernel got updated and the daily d-i images
(being based on sid) result in a kernel mismatch.
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/linux-signed-amd64
You can see the red bars in openQA:
https://openqa.debian.net/
In openQA the kernel mismatch is diagnosed rather quickly after a kernel
update.
* Do you want future mails of this type, or are you monitoring
openQA/something else yourselves?
* Would a setting like 'LINUX_KERNEL_ABI ?= auto' be welcomed as a
patch? With that value, the kernel will be automagically be matched to
the current kernel version, whereas it would still be possible to
specify 'LINUX_KERNEL_ABI ?= 6.12.8' for explicit kernel versions.
Live-build already has this automagic in place, which explains why the
daily sid-based images still have a working d-i installer.
With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
