Package: linux-image-6.12.48+deb13-armmp
Version: 6.12.48-1
Dear maintainers,
I am trying to update one cubie5 SBC (cubietruck-plus) with new kernel
available into Debian Trixie 13.1 release.
The first warning is due (in my opinion!) to a bad package dependency,
because...
root@hn-cubie5-175:~# update-initramfs -v -u
Available versions: 6.12.48+deb13-armmp
Keeping /boot/initrd.img-6.12.48+deb13-armmp.dpkg-bak
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.12.48+deb13-armmp
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/imx/sdma/sdma-imx7d.bin for
built-in driver imx_sdma
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/imx/sdma/sdma-imx6q.bin for
built-in driver imx_sdma
This is a bad dependancy because imxc firmware are never used by this
board, cubietruck-plus is not based on one NXP CPU
After installing this package ...

* Non-maintainer upload (Closes: #1112614)
.
[ YIN Renlong ]
* Fix update-initramfs crash on empty override directory
The acpi-override hook script unconditionally executes a copy command
using a wildcard (*). When the /var/lib/acpi-override/ directory is
empty (default state), this command fails, causing update-initramfs
to exit with an error code.
.
The change adds a conditional check to ensure the directory exists
and is populated before attempting the copy operation.
Closes: #968604 (LP: 1892035)
