Bug Description

systemd 251.4-1ubuntu1 (in kinetic-proposed at the time of writing) adds a Breaks: sicherboot (<< 0.1.6) to systemd due to the systemd-boot package split (see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1012626 and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1012625). This makes sicherboot 0.1.5 uninstallable on kinetic.

According to Julian (juliank) , sicherboot wraps bootctl which is in systemd-boot but must conflict with systemd-boot because it will run bootctl on its own, so sicherboot would need to reimplement bootctl. For this reason Julian suggests that sicherboot should just be removed from kinetic.
