Package: kernel-package
Version: 12.027
Severity: important

installing a xen0 kernel:

# dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.31.5-xen0_jh1_amd64.deb 
Selecting previously deselected package linux-image-2.6.31.5-xen0.

Internal Error: Could not find image (/boot/xen0-linux-2.6.31.5)
dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.31.5-xen0 (--install):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 linux-image-2.6.31.5-xen0

Looking in /boot we find:
# ls /boot/*xen0*
/boot/vmlinux-2.6.31.5-xen0  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-xen0

Looks like the postinstall script is getting the wrong name

In /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.31.5-xen0.postinst we see:

....
# Predefined values:
my $version            = "2.6.31.5";
my $move_image         = '';     # target machine defined
my $kimage             = "xen0-linux";   # Should be empty, mostly
....
die "Internal Error: Could not find image (" . $realimageloc
  . "$kimage-$version)\n" unless -e $realimageloc
  . "$kimage-$version";

What is "xen0"?  A bit of the version?  An architechure?  A 
subarchiture?  A submarine architect?
