Good point. Not applicable in my particular case.
Is the kernel not auto-updated, even if the package name is the same?
Eg, in my case, the kernel I needed was in the package:
linux-image-3.12-1-rt-amd64
which package name did not change, but the "version" did as follows, from:
Version : 3.12.6-2
to
Version : 3.12.8-1
