Upgrade 23.10 -> 24.04 is broken because of missing linux-headers dependency #122

Closed tobhe closed 5 months ago

As reported on our IRC the upgrade doesn't work with a fresh 23.10 installation. do-release-upgrade expects all packages to be up-to-date, apt upgrade will fail because "The following packages have unmet dependencies linux-headers-6.8.0-1008-apple-arm". This is fallout from the time_t 64 bit transition. We might need to release dummy packages to provide libelft64 and libssl3t64.

Should be fixed as soon as the new lib*t64-dummy packages are published to https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-asahi/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntu-asahi. Those simply pull in the proper versions of the package and have a version number low enough to be replaced with the 24,04 upgrade.
