What is the purpose of the package on linux-any systems? It is not a part of that system's boot process so perhaps doesn't belong in /boot, but rather somewhere like /usr/share or /usr/lib, like where ROM images for Qemu and things go. Someone may be crazy enough to dual-boot linux/kfreebsd out of a shared /boot partition but that's not supported. (At least update-grub would be unable to run dkms/mkinitramfs if run from kfreebsd). I'm not sure if Conflicts: dkms would be correct, if dkms is simply being invoked incorrectly by the GRUB postinst hook. In which case mkinitramfs might still be broken. (Haven't tested this theory).
