Public bug reported:
Starting with linux-image-3.2.0-38-generic I cannot upgrade the kernel.
The reason is that someone in his/her greater wisdom changed the install
scripts in a way, that if symlink creation fails then now it is a hard
error. It was a warning before. Honestly, is the failure to link vmlinuz
to vmlinuz.old worth aborting the installation process?? why???
