lcec_conf error (newest lcnc 2.10 and debian 13)

Gentlemen, you’ve made a real mess of things...
The topic at hand is that my EtherCAT configuration cannot be made to work on LinuxCNC 2.10-pre2.
First, there was an issue with `lcec_conf` throwing an error; then, it was claimed that this had been fixed (which isn't entirely true, though version 1.45 of the linuxcnc-ethercat from the `getset` branch seems to work correctly); and finally, the discussion turned to the inability to install `cia402.comp`.
I use the `cia402.comp` from the rodw's repository, as it has worked for me so far (the one from github.com/dbraun1981/hal-cia402 is five years old and has never worked for me anywhere).
I have no interest in internal drive homing, as I have no use for it.
I want to migrate my machine working well at LinuxCNC 2.10-pre1 to 2.10-pre2.
