   * Fixed implementation of the --config target in make-kpkg, to allow
operation when there is no .config file present. really closes: Bug#64786
* Fixed the FILES section in kernel-package(5)/ closes: Bug#65730
* Try and make relative links when creating links to image files, if
possible. This used to be the old behaviour, but did not work right
for people who had the symbolic links created in non standard
locations. This version should work better for most people.
closes: Bug#64949, Bug# 65116
* Added to the information message that make-kpkg provides that the
--revision option also has no effect ewhen making modules; the values
that were used when the last kernel_image were made are sued (which is
what one wants anyway). closes: Bug#65212
* Updated the README about the gcc/kernel issues (which are now mostly
solved), made the footnote appear more like one, and stuff.
closes: Bug#65386
* Make sure we remove modules.dep when the kernel-image package is
removed, so that we do not get messages from dpkg saying that
/lib/modules/<version> was not removed because it was not empty. This
closes: Bug#66341
* Added a warning in the make floppy routine of the image postinst to
warn if the kernel is larger than some hard coded limit. This breakage
should really be fixed in the kernel. closes: Bug#66596
* Since it is just a suggestion in the packaging manual, do not force
all flavours to be downcased. (make-kpkg shall still complain).
* Added a new arch section for sparc64. closes: Bug#64866
* cleaned up the postrm, now it should warn people putting the
symlinks in non-standard places and still using lilo about removing a
kernel that may have been used in lilo. closes: Bug#65737
