Device Update Agent for Debian12

Question

Hi,

we have a problem using iot hub device update with Debian 12 on armhf. We built it from source because there is no official package provided. Then the .deb file was extracted and installed on the target system. That package additionally requested delivery optimization which was also build from source and then installed succesfully. Installing the deviceupdate-agent however fails in the postinst script.

The error thrown in the postinst script:

******************** Running /var/lib/dpkg/info/deviceupdate-agent.postinst configure ***********************

Errors were encountered while processing:
deviceupdate-agent
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I also tried building the ADU agent directly on the target system but with no succes.

There is allready a ticket for that on github (https://github.com/Azure/iot-hub-device-update/issues/744) but i never got an answer.

We need this working to meet the requirements of the EN18031. So we need to know if Debian12 will be supported in the next months or if we need to search for another solution.

Best Regards
