Hey!

Sorry, I've had this in the back of my head to reply to, and I'm not
sure if you still have your system in that condition and logs available
etc, or if you have already cleaned it up or reinstalled from scratch.
It might have been helpful to go through one of the user support channels
first before filing the bug report though, as it still seems to me this
was most probably due to user error.

I've been pondering about asking you to do just that now, and closing
this bug report in the interim, because as it stands this bug report is
a bit confused and really not actionable in any significant way, and I'm
not sure if I'll have the time to track down the issue here.

Hmm I don't see that from your dpkg_before.txt file. The closes one is
linux-image-3.2.0-3-amd64. I also do not see any removal or
installation of any linux-image package from your upgrade log.

Is that from the same system from the logs and the botched upgrade? It
does not really match what's on the logs.

Having the relevant dpkg.log and apt's history.log and term.log from
the affected session might be helpful. Otherwise I'm not sure I can do
more.

That only answers what's available to be installed from the repository
not what's on the system or why,

It does not answer either if that was locally built, or if it came from
some third party repository, or what. And if locally built, how was it
built, kernel-package, make deb-pkg etc.

Dunno, maybe mail problem on your side, otherwise you'll have to ask the
BTS admins.

That's probably because that version is not available in jessie anymore.

Thanks,
