Public bug reported:

After installing the nvidia-331 package using the software centre in
14.04.01, the meta package linux-generic is removed which in turn
removes the dependency on linux-image-generic and linux-headers-generic.
After running apt-get autoremove, these are removed thus preventing
future kernel updates.
