And none of which you report. If you can't put together a
coherent bug report, you can't expect issues to get resolved.
Frankly, k-p works fine when used as expected -- linux-2.6 tries to
mould it in a fashion which is not exactly supported, by overriding
bits and pieces, and I am not surprised when things do not work as
you try to force them to.
Even then, I would respond to bug reports which show
misbehavior by kernel-package -- which have not exactly been
forthcoming, have they?

tired of people trying to bend k-p into doing things it is not
supposed to do, and then complaining when they fail
