Package: kmod
Version: 30+20230601-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders system unusable

Dear Maintainer,

I just did a normal apt upgrade and the following packages were upgraded:
kmod 30+20230519-1 to 30-2.230601-1
libkmod2 30+20230519-1 to 30-2.230601-1

The system partially booted but systemd then prevented boot due to missing
modules,
The error message it gave was "decompresson failed with status 6"

I had to boot from a rescue usb stick, set a root password, then I was able to
interact with systemd's idea of a diagnotic console - I'm not systemd's biggest
fan
I used another system to download the older versions of kmod and libkmod2 and
as able to use dpkg to downgrade them.

I installed both on another system and it does the same.
I'm not sure if this effects other system's with sysvinit or non efi.

Regards
Jon Westgate
