[Bug 2045130] Re: impossible to upgrade to 23.10 (from 23.04) - maybe initramfs-tools issue ?

[braoult]

Thanks Nick.

I wanted to test your idea, but removing ~ondrej repo's packages will
totally break the system. In fact this repo was not in use since impish
upgrade (it was disabled by the upgrade, but I did not notice it), but
some packages remained, and became de facto dependencies of many other
packages (including a bunch of libs and application packages).

This is really messy...

Therefore, as I have full backups of all partitions on a backup server,
and 2 identical disks on my desktop, I will not do the upgrade, but
instead make a full install on the second disk and re-apply my system
config changes.

This means this bug is no more a concern for me.

Question: What would be the procedure to close this bug for me only (not
disturbing the 3 other people who seem to be impacted by it) ?

  I believe the issue could be (from /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log):

  Ignore MarkInstall of initramfs-tools:amd64 < 0.142ubuntu2.2 |
