Hi, the maintainer of gnu-efi has updated the package to 3.0.6 in experimental (I had actually asked for this in #880506 [1]). The new version of gnu-efi causes syslinux to FTBFS. I have reviewed and added the patches from upstream's mailing list to restore compatibility with the new gnu-efi version. In my tests everything went fine. While I have no idea how this transition will be handled by the release team (especially considering that none of the other reverse build dependencies of gnu-efi has a "Built-Using" control field), I think it's a good idea to upload this new version of syslinux to experimental. I've pushed my changes the debian/experimental branch in the git repository: https://anonscm.debian.org/git/debian-cd/syslinux.git Please review my changes (and sponsor if you're satisfied). Thanks Lukas [1] https://bugs.debian.org/880506
