[ubuntu-uk] kernel update marks as break - problem

[alan c]

I have just updated one of my older machines (kubuntu dapper) - there 
were about 20 or so updates I suppose. Following the activity I saw 
that the updates available marker was still showing.

This produces a notice that two items still need updating
linux image 386 and
linux restricted modules on 386

When I proceed with this update they both indicate something to be 
broken, and the update refuses.
Rebooting does not seem to change things

Is my database mixed up or must I live with a continuous indication of 
an impossible update?
