I would guess that you're seeing that message when the kernel-default-base 
package gets installed/updated, but not when the kernel-default package is 
installed/updated.  If that is the case, then there is nothing wrong.  If the 
kernel-default-base package gets installed before kernel-default, when it calls 
mkinitrd gets called, the majority of the kernel modules don't exist in the new 
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ subdirectories, and you get this message.  Then, when 
the kernel-default package gets processed, mkinitrd is called again, all the 
modules are there, and you shouldn't see the message.
