You have been subscribed to a public bug:
1. Perform a kernel upgrade normally via "apt-get dist-upgrade".
2. Reboot.
3. Run "apt-get autoremove" to delete the old kernel packages.
4. "System Notification Helper" now reports that the computer requires a reboot.
The "autoremove" operation shouldn't require a reboot, logically
speaking, because it's just removing files that are unused by the OS.
