Question About Remote Updates

Folks,

I have two systems that I maintain remotely using apt-get check/update/upgrade 
(each run separately) via ssh. Why do I not get a message about restarting the 
system even though the update packages listing that I get contain information 
that a new kernel is available?

I get this series of messages:

cdjsys at ursa:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
   linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic ubufox
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded.

How can I install these?


Thanks,
Jay
