Title:
  Precise linux[-image]-hwe-generic installs Quantal kernel, not Saucy

Status in “linux-meta” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “linux-meta” source package in Precise:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The meta packages linux-hwe-generic and linux-image-hwe-generic cause
  the installation of the Quantal kernel in Precise rather than the
  latest linux[-image]-generic-lts-saucy.

  I would expect the Saucy kernel to be installed at this point and I am
  depending on this working for bug #1275656 to make the instructions as
  streamline as possible.
