   * There was a problem  while installing a kernel with no modules created
with a new, more helpful kernel-package, which tries to run depmod
during install (This helps people who are replacing the running kernel
with a new kernel with the same version).  I have now fixed the
postinst to check whether the directory exists before calling depmod.
closes: Bug#99105
* Fixed spelling errors in make-kpkg(1).                  closes: Bug#99454
* Remove empty /lib/modules/$version dir in postinst if empty. dpkg did
not remove the directory, obviously since there were files it was not
aware of created by depmod, however these were removed by the postrm
correctly, but it neglected to remove the empty directory.
closes: Bug#99880
* Fixed another typo in the image postinst.                closes: Bug#101524
* Changed the loaderdep= field for IA-64 to be 'elilo' instead of
'lilo-efi'.                                              closes: Bug#100321
* make kernel-pkg.conf(5) refer to ~/.kernel-pkg.conf, and not
~/kernel-pkg.conf.                                       closes: Bug#100709
* make-kpkg doesn't work with 2.4.5 and up on PowerPC, since all of the
*boot directories were merged, renamed and moved around. The included
fixes this, and also removed the BeBox target bits.  BeBox isn't
supported in Linux 2.2.x or 2.4.x                        closes: Bug#103032
* Added support for mips and mipsel                        closes: Bug#102043
* Added postrm grub example script, and config file. Added a README baed
on the bug report                                        closes: Bug#103531
* Now add documentation to the effect that if one runs make (menu|x)?config
to configure the kernel, it creates `include/linux/version.h', which
contains the kernel version without_ the append_to_version data. This
file won't be updated by the make-kpkg run (make-kpkg creates
version.h if it doesn't exist, but doesn't touch if exists), so the
final kernel will _not_ have the append_to_version data in its version
number. Now kernel-package moans about the file, and allows you to
abort early.                                   closes: Bug#97202, Bug#98908
