Installing a new kernel won't automatically get a new
kernel-firewire package installed. This breaks setups
where people forget to update the kernel and will
certainly break any automatic upgrades people may have
set up.
it's even worse, say you want to install an OLDER kernel for whatever
reason; just "newest external" won't cut it with the way most of these
are packages; you need the exact matching one.
and you need it installed before the kernel gets installed, so that it
makes the initrd.
