Title:
  15.10 upgrade doesn't upgrade kernel

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have recently installed 15.10 on three systems.  In one case, it was
  a semi-fresh install, over top of an existing 15.04 install that had
  been a failed upgrade from 14.10 LTS.  In the other two cases, they
  were successful upgrades from 15.04.

  In all three cases, the kernel did not get upgraded with the rest of the OS, so I had to manually run this:
  sudo apt-get install linux-generic

  Only then did I get the right kernel.  And only then could I get
  things like nfs-server to work, so the failure to upgrade the kernel
  causes all sorts of other problems, because a lot of other packages
  are dependent on having the right kernel.

  I'm not the only person to notice this.  I found the fix from this forum post:
