As far as I know, Linux kernel images are moving away from using
the same configuration file. They really should be using their own
config files. In the meanwhile, yes, the kernel images may be installed
on machines where kernel-package is not; and it would be really nice if
the man page lived in a generic package.
I'll see what can be done about that.
