 This is intentional; there are weak dependencies on u-boot-tools and
 other similar utilities: Suggests: u-boot-tools | uboot-mkimage,
 uboot-envtools, redboot-tools, abootimg

 mkimage should be pulled by whatever is installing flash-kernel to make
 the system bootable; flash-kernel provides a d-i style installer script
 to achieve this (see flash-kernel-installer.postinst in the source)
 which is called by d-i and ubiquity during e.g. Ubuntu installs.  It's
 not clear how this should be integrated with Linaro image tools.
