Hi,
This is mentioned in the release notes:
https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/mips64el/release-notes/ch-informat…
I'm not sure what the proper procedure would be to upgrade
openssh-server first. I guess download the .deb file manually and
install it before doing the "apt upgrade"?
Has anyone tried doing an `apt-get update` to the new release and then
`apt-get intall openssh-server`?
That's what I was expecting to have to do but if it forces a libc upgrade
as well then perhaps that makes it difficult to restart any other binaries
on the machine whilst the upgrade is in progress?
If this is the relevant bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=990069
then it seems like ssh must be restarted after a new libc is
installed, so I don't see how upgrading ssh first avoids that, but
maybe I misunderstand. The fix at the end of that bug is to glibc
making it aware that it has to restart ssh:
* debian/script.in/nsscheck.sh: restart openssh-server even if it
has been deconfigured during the upgrade. Closes: #990069.
Best wishes,
@ndy
