I am delighted to report that this issue has finally been resolved
as of the 5.14.0 mainline kernel.

There is a completely unrelated annoyance involving APC UPSs and a
flood of "hid-generic:  control queue full" messages on
the console.  This was reported and fixed as of 01 Sep 2021, but
the fix hasn't made it into mainline yet :-(.

Updated Debian Ports installation images 2021-09-23

2021-09-23 Thread John Paul Adrian Glaubitz
Hi!

I have just built and uploaded updated Debian Ports installation images.

These images contain an updated apt-setup package which fixes the APT
problem that occurred during installation with the 2021-09-21 images.

I have performed a successful test installation on sparc64 and will
perform a test on ia64 on my RX2660 later as well.

I will provide more images updates in the following days which will
contain more fixes such as for the hd-media installation as well as
improvements on Apple PowerMac.

The images can be obtained from [1].

Thanks,
Adrian
