This bug was fixed in the package livecd-rootfs - 2.610
---------------
livecd-rootfs (2.610) eoan; urgency=medium
* Fix a typo in the 999-ubuntu-image-customization.chroot hook.
livecd-rootfs (2.609) eoan; urgency=medium
[ Ethan Hsieh ]
* Add support for the Nitrogen6x board (LP: #1838064).
[ Łukasz 'sil2100' Zemczak ]
* Do not initialize EXTRA_SNAPS with an empty value. Allow overrides via the
environment.
* Make sure that currently all ubuntu-image built images ship the NoCloud
system-boot clout-init datasource (as right now all u-i targets are
physical devices).

[FFe] Support Nitrogen6x board

Bug description:
[Impact] The existing u-boot package doesn't build the binary u-boot-
imx for Nitrogen6x 2G version.
[Test Case] Since essentially these changes are related to hardware
enablement (and no official images are yet being produced), the only
possible test case is asking the HWE team to verify if the packages in
-proposed work as expected on the target device.
[Regression Potential] None. The patches add config changes for a new target (nitrogen6x2g) to generate u-boot-imx.
The changes are tested on the Nitrogen6x board.
[Feature Freeze Exception]
Even though the required u-boot changes for Nitrogen6x support do not introduce any behavior change in existing packages per-se, the changes do enable a new, not-built previously target by default. All the Ubuntu-specific changes do not affect any existing users, since the nitrogen6q2g target was never officially built for both Ubuntu and Debian.
To reach as many users as possible and become a well-known distribution for IoT and embedded devices, it is important to support as many different devices as possible. Which is why I would like to request a Feature Freeze exception for any hardware-enablement work required for adding Nitrogen6x support.
