Quite frankly, I'm no longer using Sid/Testing as a primary platform, so
I'm not entirely up to speed on the precise details. Generally, however,
the kernel packge switched to a new initrd method. You will also notice
that the package name changed from "kernel-image-2.6...." to
"linux-image-2.6...". This is part of the same change.
IIRC, they are using a new mechanism to generate an initrd replacement
(this is NOT an initrd in the usual sense of the word, but something
understood by the kernel directly). Sadly, I don't know the precise
details of the change. Perchance one of the kernel devs on this list can
elaborate further?
