I just run "aptitude update" "aptitude full-upgrade" and it "upgrades" the kernel. I accept your difference - but it may not apply in the same way to the other distros which were mentioned. And from my point of view, I just upgrade. I have the impression, however, that when other packages are "upgraded" (moved on to a higher version) the previous package *is* removed.
