Package: linux-image-armmp
Version: 3.16.0-4
Severity: normal

When first removing the current kernel and then installing a new kernel
a symbolic link /boot/vmlinux is created.

sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp
sudo apt-get install linux-image-armmp-lpae

When first installing an additional kernel and then removing the current
kernel the symbolic link /boot/vmlinux is removed instead of replacing it.

sudo apt-get install linux-image-armmp-lpae
sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp

My expectation is that irrespective of the sequence of operations the
symbolic link /boot/vmlinux should be created for the current kernel.

Same for /boot/initrd.img.

The problem occurs in
linux-image-3.16.0-4-armmp.postrm
