Bug description:
Packages in Debian & Ubuntu that are using their own postinstall script should remove the logic from there and instead use /usr/lib/dkms/common.postinst .  This script contains sufficient logic to figure out the correct kernels to build for and accounts for allowing builds on a buildd (if a package is ever included in a live media build).

The following sample template is sufficient to use instead:
