    With the retirement of bullseye-backports, hyperv-daemons for arm64 is no longer available in any bullseye repository. This breaks the cloud team's arm64 image builds for Hyper-V environments.

    Please enable the hyperv-daemons binary package in the linux-6.1 builds for bullseye-security.

    With the retirement of bullseye-backports, hyperv-daemons for arm64 is
    no
    longer available in any bullseye repository.  This breaks the cloud
    team's
    arm64 image builds for Hyper-V environments.

    Please enable the hyperv-daemons binary package in the linux-6.1
    builds for
    bullseye-security.

    hyperv-daemons is already built (for x86) by src:linux and I don't think
    2 source packages can build the same binary package for different architectures.

    There have been no functional changes in hyperv-daemons between 5.10 and
    6.1, so I can build it for arm64 from src:linux with no loss of
    functionality. However the version number would be lower than before.

    Would that meet the requirements for cloud images? Or do I need to
    fudge the binary version number?

    Ben.

    Looking through the changelogs and the content of the rest of our cloud
    images, I think the hyperv-daemons from 5.10 should be OK. We're
    installing that version on all our amd64 cloud images (including the
    -backports image), so the only potential issues I can see are:

    * There's some arch-specific issue impacing hyperv-daemons for arm64,
    * There's the possibility for confusion among the current users of our
    arm64 bullseye-backports images, as they've previously contaned the
    6.1 version of that package.

    I think I'm OK with the risk associated with those issues, and am in
    favor of doing the most basic work to enable the 5.10 hyperv-daemons
    binary package.

    Thanks

    I've cherry-picked the necessary changes, so hyperv-daemons/arm64 will
    be included in the next upload of src:linux.
