NEW FINDINGS — Problem is not image content, but systemd-sysupdate itself:

TEST SETUP:
- New VM booted from current ISO (kde-linux_202607040653)
- ISO boot works cleanly (no panic)
- System runs stably on 202607040653

FINDINGS:

1. systemd-sysupdate check-new: WORKS
   - Shows candidates correctly (202607040303, 202607031422, etc.)
   - Downloads succeed
   - Signatures verify OK

2. systemd-sysupdate acquire 202607040303: PARTIALLY WORKS
   - Download successful
   - End of process: "failed with exit status 1: Input/output error"
   - Version not finalized/activated

3. systemd-sysupdate list: CRASH
   - Command crashes with: "Code should not be reached at
src/sysupdate/sysupdate-update-set-flags.c:158, function
update_set_flags_to_string(). Aborting."
   - Also affects pending queries

ROOT CAUSE: Not image, but systemd-sysupdate tool itself
- ISO boot (202607040653) = OK
- sysupdate tool = BUG in code (update_set_flags_to_string crash)

HYPOTHESIS:
- ISO-compatible images since 202606260254 work when booted from ISO
- But sysupdate integration has a separate bug
- Old VMs with sysupdate-based updates → panic (combined effect)
- New VMs from ISO → boot OK, but sysupdate tool crashes during update process

VERIFIED WORKAROUND:
- Mask systemd-sysupdate.timer
- Activate new images only manually after ISO testing
- Wait for sysupdate fix

REQUESTS:
1. Check: sysupdate-update-set-flags.c:158 (function
update_set_flags_to_string)
2. Is this a known bug in current systemd version?
3. ISO-compatible images alone are not at fault — sysupdate integration is the
problem
