+ 
+ It seems to me that when upgrade-manager is running in Ubuntu Desktop
+ mode it should upgrade GA to HWE tracking kernel when upgrading to new

  linux-generic-hwe isn't installed

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:

  kernel flavour and track rolling hwe kernel.

  Upon upgrades from systems installed using installer from before 19.10
  they are stuck on linux-generic.

  It seems to me that when upgrade-manager is running in Ubuntu Desktop
