If you hand-picked packages: I would suggest using apt to upgrade the whole system . For anybody who followed my initially erroneous advice to remove linux-image-amd64 - installing that package should pull in 6.1.0-15 correctly as a dependency. Kevin: Do you have any logs to show brokenness? For what it's worth, there were other updates and fixes besides just #1057843 in the new release.
