It doesn't seem easy to install packages from testing-proposed-updates.
https://wiki.debian.org/TestingProposedUpdates doesn't tell me how to do
that and after adding:
deb http://some_debian_mirror/debian/ testing-proposed-updates main
'apt-cache search linux-image' doesn't show me linux-image-4.19.0-10-amd64..

Anyway, I downloaded this package directly from the mirror's pool:
linux-image-4.19.0-10-amd64-unsigned_4.19.131-2_amd64.deb
Is the above package correct?

And the good news is, this kernel also works fine :-)

I see, thanks for the explanation.
