I think editing the systemwide template should be discouraged. Is it perhaps an issue of
the linux-image-unsigned-XXX package? Shouldn't it simply Provide linux-image-XXX?

I am also not sure why some arch specific builds (e.g., amd64, arm64) have an -unsigned binary
package and other don't (e.g., i386).

Copying from https://kernel-team.pages.debian.net/kernel-handbook/ch-packaging.html#s-arch-dep:
```
linux-image-version-abiname[-featureset]-flavour-unsigned

This package contains the binary kernel image and pre-built binary modules for a particular arch/featureset/flavour combination, that are meant to be signed and copied into a package without the -unsigned suffix. There is normally no need to install these packages.
```
Does the above hold for linux-image-unsigned-5.2.0-050200rc6-generic_5.2.0-050200rc6.201906222033_amd64.deb?

I tend to believe that his is more an issue with the kernel mainline build rather than with DKMS.
