Package: linux-image-2.6.15-1-686
Version: 2.6.15-1
Followup-For: Bug #345934

I also noted:

 -- doing nothing at
/var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.15-1-686.postinst line 579.

The new kernel is installed and usable, but the package remains listed
as partly installed and attempts to complete installation each time I
add or update packages with aptitude.

Regards,

Arthur.
