Well, I thought that some easy receipt would pop up as an answer to my
question on how to achieve such automatic upgrades. As this did not
happen I conclude that the wished procedure is not so common and not
readily worked out by now. I will accept this and go for the
repetitive manual way then.
I think the problem here is a misunderstanding of how backports work:
they're not "the latest kernel", they're "the latest kernel from debian
testing". You're not going to see a kernel in backports that's not going
to be in trixie until after the trixie release. (And even then it would
be going into trixie-backports, not bookworm-backports.) Simply install
linux-image-amd64 from bookworm-backports and you'll be fine.
