Hi there,
we are currently facing a pretty serious issue regarding the latest kernel from stretch backports:
miniops@mumpitz ~ $ sudo apt-cache madison linux-image-amd64
linux-image-amd64 | 4.19+102~bpo9+1 | http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-backports/main amd64 Packages
When doing apt-get dist-upgrade there is either no outcome, or, on a fresh installing machine, an error occurs:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-image-amd64 : Depends: linux-image-4.19.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Looking at
https://packages.debian.org/stretch-backports/linux-image-amd64 this package is truly not available, but for apt-get update it seems that there is an update.
https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=linux-image-4.19.0-2-amd64-unsigned belongs to buster already. So there might have been some deployment issues.
This causes errors when installing new machines, as well as inconsistencies when upgrading existing ones.
Best regards,
Lukas
