        This is the only such package that kernel-package knows how to
 create. Anything else is being created by some entity outside of
 kernel-package, which kernel-package can't control -- so is not
 relevant here.

        In that case, please address your concerns to whatever build
 the official kernels, since it does nto appear to be kernel-package
 itself that does  that.

        I am not disputing your claims about official packages. I am
 just saying that those were not created by kernel-package.

        But that is already the case: kernel-package assigns the build
 symlink to the kernel-image package, and that is the only package to
 contain it.
