## Problem description
Executing the `/etc/kernel/postinst.d/xx-update-initrd-links` script incorrectly detects symbolic links targets and then creates malformed (hence broken) ones instead:
/initrd.img -> initrd.imgboot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-53-generic
/initrd.img.old -> initrd.imgboot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-53-generic
while it should actually be:
/initrd.img -> boot/initrd.img-5.3.0-53-generic
/initrd.img.old -> boot/initrd.img-5.3.0-53-generic
The problem appeared with the release of the version 4.5ubuntu1.5 of the linux-base package, which made this script executable.
## Solution
A solution is proposed through the attached patch file.
## System information
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS
Release: 18.04
Uname: Linux 5.3.0-53-generic x86_64
## Package information
Package: linux-base 4.5ubuntu1.5
PackageArchitecture: all
SourcePackage: linux-base
Tags: bionic package-from-proposed |

## Problem description
Executing the `/etc/kernel/postinst.d/xx-update-initrd-links` script incorrectly detects symbolic links targets and then creates malformed (hence broken) ones instead:
/initrd.img -> initrd.imgboot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-53-generic
/initrd.img.old -> initrd.imgboot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-53-generic
while it should actually be:
/initrd.img -> boot/initrd.img-5.3.0-53-generic
/initrd.img.old -> boot/initrd.img-5.3.0-53-generic
The problem appeared with the release of the version 4.5ubuntu1.5 of the linux-base package, which made this script executable.
[Test Plan]
* Install new linux-base and initramfs-tools
* create /etc/kernel-img.conf with
do_symlinks = yes
do_bootloader = no
do_initrd = yes
link_in_boot = yes
* Install one kernel flavour, check that symlinks in /boot have sane targets
* Install another kernel, check that symlinks in /boot/ have sane targets
* create a selfbuilt kernel and install it by calling installkernel (you can download kernel debs from kernel-ppa, and unpack them to pretend one has self built it). and check that symlinks in /boot have sane targets.
* Purge all kernel, and remove symlinks in /boot
* Update /etc/kernel-img.conf to
do_symlinks = yes
do_bootloader = no
do_initrd = yes
link_in_boot = no
* Install one kernel flavour, check that symlinks in / have sane targets
* Install another kernel, check that symlinks in / have sane targets
* create a selfbuilt kernel and install it by calling installkernel (you can download kernel debs from kernel-ppa, and unpack them to pretend one has self built it)
[Where problems could occur]
* The rewritten postinst.d script now simply mostly calls linux-update-links like the normal linux-image postinst script does. One has to make sure that .deb installations of kernels happens correctly and that installkernel way of installing kernels happens correctly. Under different kernel-img.conf settings. The previous incarnations of fixing this and related issues did not account for the above cases and codepaths. |

* repeat all of the above, without having initramfs-tools installed. I.e. install kernels _without_ recommneds.
