Bug#391302: reassigning
reassign 391302 kernel-package
thanks
Since linux-image-2.6.18-1-amd64 was the last image you installed, its
postinst should have pointed the vmlinuz/initrd.img symlinks to
itself.
When you removed linux-image-2.6.18-1-amd64, the removal scripts did
not know what to set them to, and it died. Of course, you are running
grub so this actually wasn't a big deal - but it could be more
significant for other bootloaders.
Since these scripts are provided by kernel-package, it is probably the
correct owner of this bug.
The behavior I personally would be for kernel-package to
register/deregister kernels during install/remove so that it is able
to prompt the user for a new default or, with a higher debconf
priority, select one automagically.
Manoj: what do you think?
