new-kernel-pkg probably shouldn't be used here either.  The
installkernel binary is the distro agnostic kernel installation tool
and the various distros provide that as either the tool they use or as
a wrapper.  Switching to new-kernel-pkg implies this would only be
viable on grubby based distros, and using kernel-install would require
systemd.
