Title:
  Installing nvidia-331 removes linux-generic preventing future kernel
  updates

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

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.
