Bug Description

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.
