** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: kernel-package
  
  1) Natty
  2) kernel-package 12.036+nmu1 from Natty repo
  3) I expected to have an installable kernel, as I do with the 
kernel-package=12.036-~ppa from Brian Roger's PPA on Maverick.
  4) During install of packages built with make-kpkg, postinst.d errors out and 
leaves package half-installed, unconfigurable; this of course messes up any 
future package installs by any means, and is a pain to resolve.
