Can you point to me what you think is the kernel-package bug?
You asked for vmlinux to be installed along with vmlinuz, and that was
done. Seems like you want grub2 to ignore these, and for that you
probably need to modify /etc/grub.d/10_linux.
If you think that grub2 should have a behaviour change, or should
reorder the images somehow, then this bug report should be reassigned
to grub-pc, right?
