Paul in comment #5 is correct, the problem is that the symlink target
for arch-aliases is removed, but the symlink is still there. It seems to
depend on the unpack/configure order to happen, so not everyone will see
it. I still set it to critical as it can prevent the machine to boot
(initramfs busted).

The package that creates/maintains the symlink is "module-init-tools".
On --unpack the symlink target vanishes after but the symlink is only
removed when --configure is run. In my test-case its fuse-utils that
triggers the update-initramfs update.
