Bug Description

Hi,

When removing older 2.6.28 kernels, I noticed they don't purge properly:
dpkg : avertissement : lors de la suppression de linux-image-2.6.28-10-generic, le répertoire « /lib/modules/2.6.28-10-generic » n'était pas vide, donc il n'a pas été supprimé.

(dpkg - warning: while removing linux-image-2.6.28-10-generic, directory `/lib/modules/2.6.28-10-generic' not empty so not removed.)

The remaining files are:
% ls /lib/modules/2.6.28-10-generic
modules.alias.bin modules.dep.bin modules.symbols.bin

I believe debian/control-scripts/prerm should be updated to list these in @files_to_remove.

Cheers,
