[Gerhard Mack]

Package: systemd-boot
Version: 257.9-1~deb13u1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
I ran apt upgrade on a system with systemd-boot installed

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
I ran apt-upgrade

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Setting up systemd-boot (257.9-1~deb13u1) ...
Skipping "/boot/efi/EFI/systemd/systemd-bootx64.efi", same boot loader version in place already.
Skipping "/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI", same boot loader version in place already.

 installed systemd-boot package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 systemd-boot
Error: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected an error free upgrade
