[Bug 1913309] Re: Error upgrading Ubuntu armhf from 18.04 to 20.04 on RPI4 - package linux-firmware 1.187.9 failed to install/upgrade

[Juerg Haefliger]

It seems flash-kernel is confused about what DTB to use. No wonder given
all the changes with the Pi DTBs :-(


** Also affects: flash-kernel (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: linux-raspi (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
