The official Debian kernel packages, in addition to running the scripts in /etc/kernel, also runs linux-update-symlinks via the postinst script. This updates the /vmlinuz and /initrd.img (if it uses an initramfs) symlinks to point to the newly installed kernel. This update causes the builddeb script to do the same. This version of the patch incorporates the feedback from Ben Hutchings.
