   * Improved documentation for SOURCE_CLEAN_HOOK.            closes: Bug#159799
* Allow removal of the kernel-image pointed to by /vmlinuz.
kernel-package has never done promotion of /vmlinuz.old to /vmlinuz,
and I am reluctant to start now (too many things can go wrong). In all
cases, the postrm warns when removing dangling symlinks (/vmlinuz,
/vmlinuz.old). Since there are diagnostics, and the human can take
action, I am closing this report.                        closes: Bug#157184
* Since the pcmcia maintainer has taken action this but report is now
moot. However, the one point to be addressed in the report is what
happens if the pcmcia-modules package is installed first; in that
case, the kernel-image preinst shall throw a hissy fit, since
/lib/modules/X.Y.ZZ/ dir shall exist, and make the human take
corrective action (or expect breakage).                  closes: Bug#147077
