The creation of the initramfs image symlinks needs to be moved back to the .install scriptlet because pacman doesn't track the old images and will refuse to replace them. Are you sure, it should delete them on deinstalling kernel26, at least there is a post_remove function. It doesn't work is what he is telling you, nor should it- file conflict checks take place long before this, and a package will never ever ever try to overwrite things it sees on the filesystem that are unowned. The kernel symlink should stay in the package but the initramfs ones cannot.
But I don't know exactly how pacman will handle the replace.
