Typical timescales for publishing binary packages in -backports?
Hi,
I notice that yesterday there's been an acceptance email for source
package linux-signed-amd64 version 5.10.46+4~bpo10+1 in
buster-backports:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2021/08/msg00139.html
Previously there had also been one for version 5.10.46+3~bpo10+1.
Yet as of today there seems to only be binary packages built from
version 5.10.46+2~bpo10+1:
$ apt show linux-image-amd64/buster-backports
Package: linux-image-amd64
Version: 5.10.46-2~bpo10+1
Built-Using: linux (= 5.10.46-2~bpo10+1)
Priority: optional
Section: kernel
Source: linux-signed-amd64 (5.10.46+2~bpo10+1)
This is from back in July sometime.
So I was wondering what is the typical timescale for binary packages
from the kernel source upload to appear in buster-backports?
I am aware that I can build the binary packages myself if I want
them sooner. It looks like I could also install the package from sid
or bookworm:

Cheers,
Andy
