Is linux-signed-amd64 the source of linux-image-amd64? I suppose there are some constraints here but it would be (apparently) easier if the names were matching ^^

If I follow you, we have more information by inquiring about the source package than the binary one?

Very interesting. You have certainly something here...

But if true, why https://lists.debian.org/debian-backports-changes/2021/03/msg00053.html mentions "Accepted linux 5.10.19-1~bpo10+1 (source) into buster-backports->backports-policy, buster-backports" if it's just in backports-policy?

Indeed, as soon as I see "buster-backports" mentioned, I expect the package to be available through...(drum roll)... buster-backports.

Actually, what I need is just linux-image-5.10.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 but it hasn't been made available yet. This one will be related to kernel 5.10.19-1~bpo10+1.

That's a good suggestion, thanks :)
