This looks like some size issue.

Using easy-build locally, I can build an amd64 NETINST for bookworm just
fine, which includes linux-image-* packages (metapackage + expected real
package), but attempting a sid build results in missing linux-image-*
packages.

The sid log mentions:

    CD 1 filled with 845 packages, 325632 blocks, 666894336 bytes

while list.mid mentions:

    891:amd64:main:linux-image-6.11.10-amd64:104175924:linux
    892:amd64:main:linux-image-amd64:1464:

Right now I'm seeing modules for 10 kernel ABIs, that can't help. I lost
count of how critical it is to have firmware-nvidia-graphics available
(I thought it wasn't of much use, and was initially expected not to move
to nff for bookworm, which it did eventually anyway), but that one alone
steals 30+ MB of space before linux-image-*.

I haven't looked deeper at this point, maybe we have some other kinds of
“duplication” (not sure the t64 thing is over at this point, but I could
imagine how we might pull t64 and pre-t64 libraries until everything is
successfully rebuilt against the t64 ones).
