    Dear Maintainer,

    the new version of incus do not start anymore.
    I found a workaround to solve the problem.

    What I have found:

    $ systemctl status incus-agent.service
    return an error:
    systemd[1]: incus-agent.service - Incus - agent was skipped because of an unmet condition check (ConditionPathExists=/dev/virtio-ports/org.linuxcontainers.incus).

    I see that the incus package has been removed
    $ dpkg -l | grep incus
    rc incus 6.0.3-2~bpo12+1
    ii incus-agent 6.0.3-4~bpo12+1
    ii incus-client 6.0.3-4~bpo12+1
    ii incus-tools 6.0.3-2~bpo12+1

    I don't have found any solution searching this problem.

    So I tryied to insall incus
    # apt install incus
    [...]
    The following packages have unmeet dependency: <- note I try to
    translate from italian.
    incus : Depend: qemu-system-x86 (>= 1:8.0) but version 1:7.2+dfsg-7+deb12u12 has been installing

    So I added the backport repo in /etc/apt/sources.list adding the
    following:
    deb https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-backports main non-free contrib non-free-firmware

    and then installing the incus package
    # apt install -t bookworm-backports incus incus-extra

    and then starting the daemon:
    # systemctl start incus-agent.service

    now incus work

    Ciao
    Davide
