Are you sure you need to build efi-reader here? It's mostly a no-op
package on the existing arches already, and I'd be surprised if there
is any use for it on on riscv64.
As far as I can see,
- efi-reader just reads the Lang-* EFI variable an sets the
debian-installer/language debconf setting accordingly;
- it is only included in ia64 d-i initramfs;
- the .udeb is included in d-i ISO images but unused;
- it does not work with current Linux kernels because it reads
/proc/efi/vars/ which does not exist.
Is this package useful on any architecture ?
