The symbols in /proc/kallsyms are .sys_inotify_init and .sys_signalfd, not sys_inotify_init and sys_signalfd, so the preinst script thinks they're not there. I kludged around it by doing "sudo touch /etc/udev/kernel-upgrade", but a better way would be to fix the regexps in the preinst script. The "." at the start of the symbol names is an ABI thing; ".foo" refers to the start of the text for function foo, "foo" refers to the procedure descriptor for foo.
