That surely is the easiest (and best IMHO) solution for users that run into this problem, but I rather meant "What is the easiest and best way to prevent things like this in the future". I've just found #568160, which proposes the inclusion of -trunk into the list of already special cased package name substrings in debian/update_grub. I still don't get why the "trunk" part in the package name was not ~trunk or -0, which would convey the meaning of "Has not reached final -1 ABI". -- .''`.
