Title:
  casper autopkgtest failure with linux 5.8.0.30.32+21.04.34

Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in casper source package in Hirsute:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The latest kernel in hirsute is going to be 5.8.0.30.32+21.04.34. With
  this kernel installed the autopkgtest for casper is failing with the
  following error:

    qemu: could not open kernel file
  '/boot/vmlinu*-5.8.0.30.32+21-04-generic': No such file or directory

  The reason is that the "+21.04.34" sub-string in the kernel version
  isn't handled properly and it should be stripped off to determine the
  kernel file to use in /boot.

  We should probably strip off everything after the "+" from the kernel
  version string, to properly support kernels that use this particular
  version format.
