[ec2] linux-ec2, linux-image-ec2 held back

[Jonathan Marston]

when doing apt-get upgrade on my ubuntu 9.10 ec2 instance, i see that there are upgrades pending for linux-ec2 and linux-image-ec2

normally to get those held back packages to upgrade by doing 'apt-get dist-upgrade' but they still get held back

apt-get dist-upgrade -V

What are the updates? 

Do I want to force them or are they held back for a good reason?

What is best approach for updating?
