Title:
  linux-image-4.8.0 not installed upon upgrade to yakkety

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

Bug description:
  Upon booting into the newly upgraded ubuntu yakkety system I noticed
  that the kernel option that grub listed was still linux-
  image-4.4.0-21-generic.  The system booted okay, but in aptitude
  linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic was marked as obsolete (which lead to
  interesting problems later
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptitude/+bug/1633897).
  That is okay too, and while granted the linux-image-generic
  metapackage was not installed, linux-image-4.8.x was not installed by
  the update/upgrade process.  What the upgrade process should probably
  do is upgrade to the new kernel that comes with the particular flavour
  being upgraded to.
