Package: linux-image-amd64 Version: 5.15.5-1 Severity: wishlist Please make the Linux image meta-package's "Provides: linux-image-generic" versioned so that one can depend on a specific Linux kernel or higher kernel versions with ">=".
Example use case: hddtemp is made obsolete with Linux' drivetemp driver available since kernel 5.6, so it would be nice to depend on something like "hddtemp | linux-image-generic (>= 5.6)" instead of having to iterate over all architecture-specific variants of the linux-image-* meta-packages.
