Why there is No kernel-lts2019-dkms bundle?

Q&A

Greetings,
I prefer LTS version for kernels and was using kernel-lts2019. But I have broadcom wifi so I had to use DKMS. But I could not find 2019 dkms bundle.

Is kernel-lts-dkms available?

Yes kernel-lts-dkms is availble but it contains lts2018 ( kernel 4.xx) and there is some bug that causes freeze for my cpu. kernel lts 2019 (kernel 5.4.x) work fine.

sudo swupd bundle-list --deps kernel-lts-dkms

I think you should file a github issue and ask them why lts-dkms has lts2018 instead of lts2019…
