I'll take a look at this tonight.
Thanks for everyone who is participating in making unstable better.

if you do this once in a while, this is ok kernel-package
doesn't facilitate doing kernel development though.

Some package I installed required an upgrade of libc6, which resulted in the
following error message, during installation:
*
Preparing to replace libc6 2.2.5-14.3 (using .../libc6_2.3.1-5_hppa.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libc6 ...
FATAL: kernel too old
dpkg: warning - old post-removal scrip
