Dear Maintainer,

The kernel hook in /etc/kernel/{post,pre}inst.d should
be named correctly, to quote the kernel-handbook [1]:

   hook scripts for boot loaders must be named using

     the prefix zz- and no other packages may use this prefix

so zz-systemd-boot whould be correct.

This looks super ugly :-/
At the very least they should have picked numerical prefixes...

That said, why does the kernel hook need to run late/last? I.e., does this actually cause any real issues? If so, can you elaborate.
