commit 73e8cf5d20141c7c8d06126ac2db84d030467768
Author: Benjamin Kaduk <kaduk@mit.edu>
Date:   Sun Nov 8 21:19:00 2026 -0800

    autopkgtest: use isolation-container
    
    We start a service so should have a dedicated environment to run in.
    Probably this also provides a non-loopback address that will allow
    bosserver to start properly.

commit 8c080577b6ff0ca438b25938a6258ba9a98e91cb
Author: Benjamin Kaduk <kaduk@mit.edu>
Date:   Sun Nov 8 21:15:31 2026 -0800

    Reduce skew between sysname scripts for modules and main builds
    
    Bring a toplevel comment in for debian/module/sysname, as well
    as the diagnostics that print the actual unrecognized architecture
    (not just a static string that the architecture was unrecognized).
    
    Update the comment in debian/sysname to reflect the refactoring
    from 2007 that created debian/module/sysname in favor of kern-sysname.
    
    Note that some skew is expected long-term, due to the different outputs
    from `dpkg-architecture -l` and `uname -m`.
