IOW a meta package does handle upgrades. But as Brad and I already
mentioned, it can't harm to test a new kernel, before you remove the old
kernel. I always keep at least one kernel I used for a long time without
(serious) issues, IOW I at least have 2 kernels for all of my Linux
installs, a good old faithful and a new one.
