I just found out the reason. partman-zfs is actually a removed package that is no longer being maintained [1]. It's actually not present for powerpc [2] but ppc64 [3] which is why the problem shows on ppc64 but not powerpc. debian-installer automatically installs all udebs that ship with it, so if there is a partman-zfs udeb, it gets installed and if it's old and unmaintained, it will eventually cause problems. Apparently, the package never caused troubles until busybox was updated to 1.30. Packages that get deleted for the release architectures may sometime remain on the Debian Ports mirrors and have to be deleted manually by Aurelien Jarno who maintains these servers. I will ask Aurelien to purge partman-zfs from the Ports archive but also build new images later today with just partman-zfs excluded from the CD build with the help of a ppc64_udeb_exclude [4]. > [1] https://packages.qa.debian.org/p/partman-zfs.html > [2] http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-powerpc/main/p/partman-zfs/ > [3] http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-ppc64/main/p/partman-zfs/ > [4] https://salsa.debian.org/images-team/debian-cd/tree/master/data/buster -- .''`.
