Bug description:
  Raring i386 testing (dpkg 1.16.9ubuntu1)

  For the  new kernel installation from kernel-ppa, i'm downloading the
  required debs into an empty folder where i can then run dpkg -i from
  there.

  Here is the warning i get while installing a kernel:

  ....
  update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.6.6-030606-generic
  WARNING: could not open /tmp/mkinitramfs_kG4Wwd/lib/modules/3.6.6-030606-generic/modules.builtin: No such file or directory
  run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/pm-utils 3.6.6-030606-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.6.6-030606-generic
  ....

  Then the installation seems to end normally.
