[Impact] Missing 'Provides: linux-tools', results in: $ sudo apt install linux-tools Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done Package linux-tools is a virtual package provided by:   linux-tools-virtual-hwe-22.04-edge 6.5.0.9.11   linux-tools-virtual-hwe-22.04 6.5.0.9.11   linux-tools-virtual 6.5.0.9.11   linux-tools-generic-hwe-22.04-edge 6.5.0.9.11   linux-tools-generic-hwe-22.04 6.5.0.9.11   linux-tools-generic 6.5.0.9.11 You should explicitly select one to install. E: Package 'linux-tools' has no installation candidate The above should list linux-tools-raspi on ARM. [Fix] Add 'Provides: linux-tools' and 'Provides: linux-cloud-tools' to all meta packages that are missing them. [Test Case] See [Impact] above. The list of installation candidates should show the fixed meta package name. [Regression Potential] Can't think of any problems this might cause. Most meta packages are correct and we would have noticed issues by now (I hope).
