• installing k 6.6 in a multi-arch environment

    From Claudio Laurita@21:1/5 to All on Fri Sep 20 18:50:01 2024
    Dear Maintainers,
    I'm the maintainer of a Sid based System for Italian schools, pxe loaded
    and nbd distributed.
    My System was born with k 3.11, as 686-pae only, but is multi-arch
    (i686-pae and amd64) since 4.19. The kernel to load is chosen by pxe,
    based on the client machine cpu.
    I need kernel headers, as there are several driver to compile by dkms.
    Till 5.18, I simply installed the new headers and image every time I
    needed a kernel upgrade.
    But now (I tried with different versions of k 6, till 6.6.13) I cannot
    install linux-headers-amd64 without breaking all 32 bits build environment.
    I can install linux-image-amd64 alone, but obviously, without building
    the dkms modules.

    I tried to understand what changed, but I found no useful info.
    Can you please shed some light on this topic?

    Regards
