** Description changed:

  Lilo gets installed on dist-upgrades, due to the kernel image
  recommending it.  Is this intentional?  It would seem odd to have two
  bootloaders installed on dist-upgrades, effectively by default.
+ 
+ NOTE: that actually lilo was not installed on dist-upgrade but mearly
+ upgraded.  However lilo was not expected to be installed and therefore
+ was not expected to be updated when the upgrade was performed.

   This package contains the Linux kernel image for version 2.6.28 on
   x86/x86_64.
   .
   Also includes the corresponding System.map file, the modules built by the
   packager, and scripts that try to ensure that the system is not left in an
   unbootable state after an update.
   .
   Supports Generic processors.

   You likely do not want to install this package directly. Instead, install
   the linux-generic meta-package, which will ensure that upgrades work
   correctly, and that supporting packages are also installed.
