Package: linux-image-2.6.16-2-prep
Version: 2.6.16-15
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
linux-image-2.6.16-2-prep still fails to generate a usable vmlinuz image like the -powerpc package.
Setting up linux-image-2.6.16-2-prep (2.6.16-15) ...
Hmm. The package shipped with a symbolic link /lib/modules/2.6.16-2-prep/source
However, I can not read the target: No such file or directory
Therefore, I am deleting /lib/modules/2.6.16-2-prep/source
Running depmod.
Finding valid ramdisk creators.
Using mkinitramfs-kpkg to build the ramdisk.
Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/mkvmlinuz
Sorry, I do not know how to handle PowerPC sub-architecture prep in version 2.6.16-2-prep.

Closing, as prep kernels are now perfectly supported, since mkvmlinuz 27 and
2.6.18 debian kernels. It is used to build the prep d-i images, and i tested
on a prep installation last WE.
If problems still persist, please open new bugs.
Friendly,
Sven Luther
