Package: systemd Version: 256.7-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
There is need in scripts and installation procedures for reliable reporting of the EFI System Partition location that is mounted by systemd: # bootctl -R /boot/efi # bootctl -p /dev/mmcblk0p2 However in common situations it is not possible (or not wanted) to install the systemd boot loader currently in systemd-boot package, which does contain the `bootctl` utility. Please promote or make available in packaging the `bootctl` command so that it may be used in riscv64 architecture debian-installer (for example) where to install devicetree dtb files. Another example of where this may be useful is in the installation of Grub boot loader that currently hard-codes the path as `/boot/efi` which is not compatible with how the system actually mounts EFI System Partition, as it may not always be in that location. Firstly though we need a consistent reporting of where systemd has mounted EFI System Partition and this is not present in /etc/fstab or any other configured file. This is necessary for trixie to resolve how the EFI System Partition path can be determined within debian-installer so that the installed system is bootable.
