        If this is not your build machine, are the symlinks dangling?
 The image package postinst is supposed to remove them.

        If it is your build machine, then this is the current behaviour
 to leave the links pointing to your build directory. This can of course
 be overridden by adding your own postint file to the postinst.d
 drectory.

        No, I think I would much rather figure out why the new version
 is not working for you. I have been unable to reproduce the problems,
 and these are the kernels I have built:
