Bit off topic here, but still:

apt-listbugs to the rescue:

/etc/apt/preferences.d/apt-listbugs:

Explanation: Pinned by apt-listbugs at 2024-08-20 10:20:32 +0200
Explanation:   #1079022: kmod: symbol lookup error: 
/usr/lib/dracut/dracut-install: undefined symbol: kmod_module_get_weakdeps, 
version LIBKMOD_5
Explanation:   #1079035: kmod: latest upgrade break system startup
Package: libkmod2
Pin: version 32+20240611-1
Pin-Priority: 30000

First I verified that it seems to also affect initramfs-tools which I use.

Now whatever the discussion about the bug, this pinning is only removed
by apt-listbugs once the bug has been marked as fixed.

Again, apt-listbugs only helps when there is a bug with severity of at
least "serious". So no guarantee. But it saved me a lot of hassle often
enough that I bear with the additional time it can take to retrieve bug
report information. Waiting a few seconds to up to a minute or so is
way less amount of time than fixing up things after a breakage.
