It would be great if you could work towards such a fix... for example by
asking the apt developers if there's any other way to detect that a
package is planned for installation.
Dear APT developers, the udev preinst tries to detect if a newer kernel is
going to be installed by analyzing the dpkg command line. Unfortunately
the kernel package can be installed by APT in a different dpkg run
than the one where udev is installed and thus not be aware of the
planned installation.
Is there a (reliable) way for udev's preinst to check if a new kernel is
being installed?
