Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-9
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Hi,

as you can see i have not rebooted my machine yet, which is reasonable because my machine would
be probably left unbootable. During upgrade to kernel version 2.6.32-3, it failed at generating grub.cfg .
So I decided to check postinst script but i found nothing in there. Then I uncommented line with 
atribute strict as it is mentioned in there to be usefull for debuging and I am sending log to you. 
Hopefully it will help you more than it did to me. :)

Closing due to lack of response.

I assume this was silently resolved somehow, or we would be receiving
more complaints. ;-)  Sorry we weren't able to figure it out.
