Package: flash-kernel
Severity: important
Version: 3.90

Version 3.90 of flash-kernel does not generate a boot.scr:

  $ sudo flash-kernel
  Using DTB: armada-3720-espressobin.dtb
  Installing
  /usr/lib/linux-image-4.14.0-2-arm64/marvell/armada-3720-espressobin.dtb
  into /boot/dtbs/4.14.0-2-arm64/armada-3720-espressobin.dtb
  Taking backup of armada-3720-espressobin.dtb.
  Installing new armada-3720-espressobin.dtb.

Even though it's supposed to:

  $ grep -A 4 -i espressobin /usr/share/flash-kernel/db/all.db
  Machine: Globalscale Marvell ESPRESSOBin Board
  DTB-Id: armada-3720-espressobin.dtb
  Boot-Script-Path: /boot/boot.scr
  U-Boot-Script-Name: bootscr.uboot-generic
  Required-Packages: u-boot-tools

Setting Kernel-Flavors in /etc/flash-kernel/db works around the issue:

  Machine: Globalscale Marvell ESPRESSOBin Board
  Kernel-Flavors: any
  

Apparently the code I added to attempt to allow the ability to specify
"any" kernel flavor to fix #883547 ... broke machines that do not
specify Kernel-Flavors. Many (most?) boards do specify Kernel-Flavors,
so this is only triggered on some boards.

The code handling kernel flavors is a bit rough to work with, so the
best thing might be to just revert my commits adding support for "any"
kernel... though it would be nice to fix this properly, of course!


live well,
