Package: linux-image-6.1.0-22-amd64
The installation of linux-image-6.1.0-22-amd64 hung while configuring
linux-image-6.1.0-22-amd64, and I have been stuck since with a half-configured
linux-image with no option to resolve, preventing dpkg and apt from running.
update-initramfs works if run from the command line, but dpkg freezes after
invoking it.

Hi
This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.
If you can reproduce it with
- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports
please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.
Regards,
Salvatore
