Thanks for this info.
After installing the package I see in the /boot directory the following link
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Nov 27 18:55 initrd ->
initrd-6.4.0-150600.1.g833632b-default
which is broken as the file initrd-6.4.0-150600.1.g833632b-default is not
present in this directory

I see that file is present.
Comparing with a version 5 kernel-default package the associated files are
present.
$ ls -al /boot/initrd*

Are I'm missing something ?

Thanks for the offer, I will come back to this if nesessary.
