I suppose, that this info isn't required for this wish.

** Description changed:

+ I'm using KUbuntu 16.04 with linux-image-4.2.0-19-generic.
+ 
  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.
+ I suggest to put thermald as recommendation into linux-image-*.*.*-*-generic packages, not into linux-image-generic meta-package.
  
  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.

** Summary changed:

- Put thermald as recommendation into linux-image-W.X.Y-Z-generic, not into linux-image-generic
+ Wish: Put thermald as recommendation into linux-image-W.X.Y-Z-generic, not into linux-image-generic

       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
