Some quick clarifications to Loic's excellent notes:

> ... it should probably also run when f-k gets updated but I think it
doesn't right now ...

It should indeed be running when f-k is updated. That's something I
fixed a while ago (LP: #1667742), and then fixed the fix (LP: #2007827).
As you noted, it's complex :)

> ... I haven't looked at how the two would get sorted; would the
highest version win, or would the name be preponderant?

This depends on the implementation of "linux-version sort", which it
turns out is just doing Debian version comparison on the kernel version
*including the suffix*. So if two versions are otherwise identical the
suffix which sorts alphabetically later will be "latest". For example:

  $ cat versions
  6.8.0-1005-raspi
  6.8.0-1005-generic
  $ linux-version sort < versions
  6.8.0-1005-generic
  6.8.0-1005-raspi

Worth bearing in mind when "moving flavours".
