This bug was fixed in the package u-boot - 2020.10+dfsg-1ubuntu0~20.10.1

---------------
u-boot (2020.10+dfsg-1ubuntu0~20.10.1) groovy; urgency=medium

  * SRU of changes through to 2020.10+dfsg-1ubuntu6 to fix Pi4-8GB & CM4 support,
    and add support for risc-v unleashed board:

  [ Dave Jones ]
  * Add d/p/rpi-8gb-pci.patch for Pi400 and Pi4-8Gb support (LP: #1906552)
  * Add d/p/rpi-cm4-sdhci.patch for CM4 eMMC support
  * Add d/p/rpi-maxargs.patch for new Core 18 boot-env (LP: #1910094)
  * Remove redundant d/targets entries

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * Enable u-boot spl for unleashed. LP: #1905274

u-boot (2020.10+dfsg-1ubuntu0~20.10) groovy; urgency=low

  * SRU of 2020.10+dfsg-1 to support Raspberry Pi 4 ethernet (LP:
#1903054)

  [ Dave Jones ]
  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - Enable Ubuntu support for the Nitrogen6x board (LP: #1838064)
      - Add d/p/ubuntu-nitrogen6q2g-config-tweaks.patch to tweak the
        nitrogen6q2g configs to better fit our Ubuntu usage.
      - Start building the nitrogen6x2g target for u-boot.
    - Enable FIT signing support (LP: #1831942)
      - Enable CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE so we can sign FIT images.
      - Add libssl-dev to Build-Depends: to enable crypto functionality.
      - Limit key names to keys within the keydir.
    - d/p/rpi-config-tweaks.patch: Configuration adjustments to the RPi
      configs
    - d/p/rpi-board-dt.patch: use the board's device-tree instead of an
      embedded one

  * Removed obsolete patches/changes:
    - d/p/lzo-to-lzno.patch: use gzip instead of lzo compression for FIT
      images as lzop in Ubuntu is in universe. This should be temporary and in
      the next releases ideally we should follow what Debian does.

  [FFe] Support Nitrogen6x board

Bug description:
  [Impact] The existing u-boot package doesn't build the binary u-boot-
  imx for Nitrogen6x 2G version. Also, we need to support the new
  subarch in livecd-rootfs for future image builds.

  [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.
  For the livecd-rootfs changes - since all the other bits and pieces are still not available (gadget tree for instance), it is not really possible to test this at this point. That being said, addition of a new platform should be safe and the only acceptance criteria would be to make sure the new changes did not regress any existing builds.

  [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.
  As for livecd-rootfs - there is also no possible regression potential. We are only adding new case conditionals for a new platform.

  [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.
