Package: libefiboot1
Version: 37-2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
libefiboot in stable and testing fails to parse symlinks such as:
/sys/dev/block/259:1 -> ../../devices/virtual/nvme-subsystem/nvme-subsys0/nvme0n1
which prevents tools such as grub-install and efibootmgr from working on
my system that has only NVMe drives, thus also preventing a successful
install of buster at the "install bootloader" stage of d-i.
The problem is fixed upstream here:
https://github.com/rhboot/efivar/pull/139
and that fix is already present in the version of libefiboot1 from
unstable (37-6). I have verified this by forcibly installing the .deb
from unstable on a buster system; this allows tools such as grub-install
and efibootmgr to work successfully.
Please can this fix be backported to buster so that an install is
possible?
Thanks,
Andy
