Bug#998078: reportbug: linux-headers-cloud-arm64 from buster-backports can't be satisfied

[Rich Ercolani <rincebrain@gmail.com>]

Package: linux-headers-cloud-arm64
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

linux-headers-cloud-arm64 and linux-image-cloud-arm64 point to -5.10.0-0.bpo.8-cloud-arm64, except...
while linux-image-5.10.0-0.bpo.8-cloud-arm64 is still around, linux-headers-... is not.

So you can't install the headers for the cloud-arm64 image without reaching out to snapshot.debian.org.

Presumably because the bpo.9 version hasn't produced a signed image yet, but the old one got expired because the new headers package made it in?

You can see this if you check out:
https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=5.10.0-0.bpo.8-cloud-arm64
https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=5.10.0-0.bpo.9-cloud-arm64

Thanks,
- Rich
