I have noticed that while sources and common of 2.6.38 up to -3 are upgraded
normally in apt, the linux-image is not. The -2 and -3 packages are there but
the linux-image is not upgraded. I would have to manually install -3 and
optionally remove -1 (if it be safe to do so).
No, because the -3 package is not an upgraded version of the -2 package,
it is a different package. For sources and common, you probably have
some package that has an upgraded version for the -3 kernel.
If you have one of the "linux-image-2.6-XXX" (e.g.,
linux-image-2.6-amd64) packages installed, that package depends on the
current 2.6.XX kernel, and an upgrade should therefore include
installing the new package with the 2.6.38-3 kernel.
Automatic removal of kernel images is turned off by a line in
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove. It was mentioned relatively recently
on this mailing list.
