Public bug reported:
The package fails to install correctly.
As a result, the corresponding /boot/initrd.img* entry is not created, and a
kernel panic is reported on next boot ('VFS: Cannot mount root fs (unreadable
block 0:0)' or something like that) that is fixed by downgrading the kernel to
its previous version.
