Public bug reported:
SRU Justification
[Impact]
linux-image-azure-5.15 currently has a dependency on linux-modules-
azure-5.15. Similarly, linux-modules-azure-5.15 depends on linux-image-
azure-515. This circular dependency is unnecessary since the meta
packages quite effectively manage those relationships. Furthermore, this
dependency breaks the construction of FDE-5.15 packages by pulling in
unwanted dependencies during FDE image creation.
[Where things could go wrong]
Installations where this dependency is assumed could stop working. This
is unlikely since all cloud images start from correctly installed meta
packages. This circular dependency is also new with 5.15 packages.
