linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-686 causing grub problems: alphabetical

[Mitchell Laks <mlaks@post.harvard.edu>]

I notice that others had problems with grub not updating the kernel
from linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-686 to linux-image-2.6.32-3-amd64
and I had this  same problem.

I suspect that this is because the heuristic that dpkg or apt or aptitude update
 is using
finds that linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-686 is greater than linux-image-2.6.32-3-amd
64 alphabetically
even though it is the older kernel
and this is breaking all of your automatic grub updates done by debian packaging
.

that is the reason we are all suffering....
