This is a safe operation and if there was a regression it would be in poorly written python code which could cause a Traceback. So examine the actual change carefully. + + Original Description + ------------------- In a raspberry pi system running 18.04, when running "do-release-upgrade -d" to upgrade to 20.04.1, the transition from linux-raspi2-hwe-18.04 to linux-raspi doesn't seem to be done correctly and the system ends up without this and the linux-headers-raspi meta packages. These are the meta packages installed before the release upgrade: ii linux-headers-raspi2-hwe-18.04 5.3.0.1017.6 arm64 Linux kernel headers for Raspberry Pi systems. ii linux-image-raspi2-hwe-18.04 5.3.0.1017.6 arm64 Linux kernel image for Raspberry Pi systems. ii linux-raspi2-hwe-18.04 5.3.0.1017.6 arm64 Complete Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi systems. After the upgrade is complete this is the only kernel meta installed: ii linux-image-raspi 5.4.0.1015.50 arm64 Raspberry Pi Linux kernel image During the upgrade, these kernel packages update are made: Selecting previously unselected package linux-raspi-headers-5.4.0-1015.

The transitional packages in 20.04 seem to be correct, so this behaviour is likely an issue with do- release-upgrade not handling this rename correctly and removing too many packages.
