Package: linux-2.6
Version: 3.2.1-2
Severity: minor

Hello,

if you are building kernel modules on your own (or with dkms) the
symlink /lib/modules/<version>/build.save will be created with the
source /usr/src/<version>
If you purge all related <version> packages
(linux-{kbuild,image,headers}) the (now) broken symlink is not removed
and so on the whole folder /lib/modules/<version> will not be removed
(not empty dir).

So on purging the package (headers or image?) the build.save symlink
should be removed.

Hi

This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.

If you can reproduce it with

- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports

please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.

Regards,
Salvatore
