I indeed got the same outputs.
But when I apply in /var/cache/elbe/devel/ the patch I have made it
does not work:
https://lists.linutronix.de/pipermail/elbe-devel/2020-November/005118.html

I need to edit the source located here to make it works:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/elbepack/

Regards,

Köry
