Whoops!  Need an "exit 0" at the end of that last file.

Title:
  flash-kernel 3.90ubuntu3.18.10.1 fails with mkimage: not found if no
  uboot is used

Status in flash-kernel package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After updating flash-kernel from 3.90ubuntu3 to 3.90ubuntu3.18.10.1,
  dpkg aborted with this error:

  The missing mkimage tool is in the package u-boot-tools which is recommended, but no dependency. Since I don't use uboot, I don't have that installed.

  The previous version of flash-kernel didn't care about that and worked
  just fine (updated DTB, initrd and vmlinuz).
