hello, some time ago ( may be more than a year ago ) i saw in the update manager a very strange update with the name 'linux-kernel-generic'. this update was level 5 update and therefore a have kept it back. now, every time i run : sudo apt-get upgrade i see the following massage : Reading package li...
