The grub NEWS file is wrong. This is user error: the postinst
of the kernel image being removed was created by a kernel image which
was not designed for hooks which did not use the full path; so it
fails. Nothing can be done about this.
This is hte reason I was promoting telling people to change
from /sbin/update-grub => /usr/sbin/update-grub, so that older kernel
images would not fall on their face.
Feel free to file a bug report on grub for giving advice that
caused your kernel image removal to break. I am closing this report.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
