Package: Debian-Live
Version: Bookworm 12.5
The current version of the debian-live installer in the Debian Bookworm repositories installs raspberry-firmware which was a feature of Debian 12.0. This was subsequently resolved with the release of Debian 12.1.
Debian-Live has never been updated in the Debian Repositories from the 12.0 release. Building an image after installing debian-live from Debian's Bookworm Repository still includes raspi-firmware even on Debian 12.5
Building debian-live from source resolves this issue.
To demonstrate:
clone the linuxcnc live installer from their repositories (use the default Bookworm branch)
Search the build log for raspberry-firmware. It will be found.
Searching build.log for raspi-firmware will not find it.
Resolution:
Please update the Debnian repositories so it is consistent with the source.
I am the linuxcnc user who built our debian live installer mentioned above. We distribute our ISO via
https://linuxcnc.org/downloads/ and this has been a very frustrating issue for many of our users relying on our ISO.
