Bug Description
downloading and installing updates may result in stray packages installed
I am on OEM certified machine with nvidia graphics driver card.
I chose to use nonfree & download/install updates.
in target i ended up with manual linux-modules-
and automatically installed linux-image-
Which is ok, they are extra.
It sounds like we are installing downloaded updates, rather than attempting a new dist-upgrade in target with cached downloads.

This seems to be a design decision rather than a miss to minimize the upgrades during installation.
We _can_ change that by running an apt dist-upgrade before doing anything else and that would probably also fix LP: #1871268.
