Hi Ben, Thanks for the quick response and your help! Much appreciated as I know you are in a stressed situation in terminating Debian/bookworm release. While digging through my own docs I found the attached document - cannot say it's still up2date. I will verify by generating a dot-config for a known Git tag like debian/6.1.25-1 as you described. Just see this morning linux-kernel v6.3.1 Debian packages in Debian/rc-buggy (experimental): root# apt-get install -t rc-buggy linux-image-6.3.0-0-amd64-unsigned -o APT::Get::Upgrade-By-Source-Package=0 -y ( This time the installation went fine this way - with no (DKMS) errors. ) Have more fun.
