install aziot-edge fails on trixie RPi5

[ciacco85]

Expected Behavior

install aziot-edge on latest raspberry trixie version completed without issues

Current Behavior

I get package dependancy errors.
Unable to satisfy dependencies. Reached two conflicting decisions:

1. aziot-identity-service:armhf=1.5.6-1 is selected for install because:
2. aziot-edge:armhf=1.5.21-1 is selected for install
3. aziot-edge:armhf=1.5.21-1 Depends aziot-identity-service:armhf (= 1.5.6-1)
4. aziot-identity-service:armhf=1.5.6-1 Depends libtss2-esys-3.0.2-0:armhf (>= 2.3.1)

On bookwork I had to install different a different hostname package. I've tried this solution on trixie without success

sudo apt remove -y hostname --allow-remove-essential
sudo apt install -y hostname:armhf
sudo apt install -y aziot-edge

Steps to Reproduce

• provision a new Raspberry Pi 5 device
• flash an SD with the latest Raspberry PI OK with Raspberry PI Imager (trixie)

The first problem is that you're trying to install armhf packages on an arm64 OS. The Pi supports it but there's no reason to do so.

The second problem is that we don't publish Debian 13 packages yet, because we don't support Debian 13 yet. I assume you're trying to install Debian 12 packages, sp the dependency errors you're seeing are expected.

thanks for the clarification. Do you suggest a better method for my workaround? I use this packages

sudo apt remove -y hostname --allow-remove-essential
sudo apt install -y hostname:armhf

just because it's the only way I have found to install aziot-edged on R-Pi ARM64 devices

The second problem is that we don't publish Debian 13 packages yet, because we don't support Debian 13 yet. I assume you're trying to install Debian 12 packages, sp the dependency errors you're seeing are expected.

Thank you. I honestly don't need Debian 13, it was just an error I've found tring the latest version just in case for future update. Is trixie support in roadmap?
