Package: kernel-package
Version: 12.017
Severity: normal

I'm having the same problem.  I use make-kpkg like I've
always used it to build the kernel.  But it does not
create an initrd.  

hed...@maggie:~$ find /etc/kernel -type f
/etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools

Those are supposed to be user-supplied scripts?  I never
had to write any scripts before to get make-kpkg to work.
apt-file does not show these scripts.  They are auto-gen'd
by make-kpkg?

It seems like the postinst script should run from postinst
after installing the .deb, right?  It does not.

If I run the script myself, it creates the initrd.
