[Bug 1530540] [NEW] Put thermald as recommendation into linux-image-W.X.Y-Z-generic, not into linux-image-generic

 

Public bug reported:

The linux-image-*.*.*-*-generic packages have set of dependencies, recommendations and suggestions.
However, for some reason, the thermald recommendation isn't put there, but instead is put as recommendation for linux-image-generic meta-package.
Put thermald as recommendation into linux-image-*.*.*-*-generic, not into linux-image-generic.

Reasons:
1. Common style.
2. If I for whatever reason (for example, I want to stick to concrete kernel version) uninstalled linux-image-generic meta-package, it won't tell me that thermald is no more needed.

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
