"The problem is that (a) the kernel's postinst uses debconf, which uses
stdin and stdout for communication and forbids other junk from appearing
there, and (b) the kernel's postinst calls update-initramfs, which
outputs status information to stdout which debconf thinks is a command
in its protocol and thus confuses any future real debconf commands.
Since the kernel's postinst is the thing with special requirements due
to using debconf, it should be the thing responsible for redirecting
file descriptors around as necessary." -cjwatson

don't use mkinitramfs-kpkg vestiges.
preinst and postinst needed a bit of surge to not call
the old mkinitramfs-kpkg interfaces. just check which initramfs
binary is around and call them.
they support all relevant linux-2.6 versions.

currently is printed:

Using mkinitramfs-kpkg to build the ramdisk.
just print:
Running depmod.
Running mkinitramfs-kpkg.
(which reminds me that this wrapper should be nuked).

project smith hit the linux-2.6 templates.
linux-2.6 should generate now much less lintian warnings.
thanks to bubulle!!!

update-initramfs doesn't touch initramfs on sha1sum mismatch per
default (debian default). this can be overriden manualy.
there is no point in keeping an initramfs record of a gone image.

Support plain image type. This uses the kernel-package templates for now.
