Version: 6.12.6-1
Severity: important


Dear Maintainer,
it seems that with Kernel 6.12, Debian opts to employ xz compression for the 
Kernel (CONFIG_KERNEL_XZ=y). While in general this is a nice to have, on a Xen 
VM - at least with pygrub as bootloader - this is a big issue. pygrub doesn't 
seem to be able to boot such a Kernel. Not sure if pygrub can easily be patched 
to support xz compression, but it may be preferable to refrain to use that 
option until this situation is solved
