I would like to understand why apt-get upgrade holds backup the upgrade of the
Linux kernel.
Because the kernel ABI changed, and a new package has to be installed.
It's not just an upgrade of an existing package.
By default, "apt upgrade" will allow new packages to be installed, but
"apt-get upgrade" will not.
You can use "apt-get dist-upgrade". Or you can use
"apt-get --with-new-pkgs upgrade".
Or simply "apt upgrade", which can install new packages (but cannot
remove installed packages, unlike "apt-get dist-upgrade").
