Some essential packages like glibc will shortly disrupt the functionality

Well, yes, this was very unfortunate. Ben Hutchings updated the klibc
package again before I was able to open a pull request on SALSA to
include the patch to fix the package.

I'm sorry, but sometimes things are out of my control. We just need

Did you enable the console on the command line? Try adding "console=ttyS0"
or whatever the name of the serial console on your SPARC machine is.
