Related to #1820755 - although the new linux-base is now available in
xenial-updates, the kernel packages do not version their depends to
demand the new version, so apt-get will not necessarily install it
(which causes base-installer  to fail, since debootstrap will not have
upgraded from xenial-updates prior to installing base-
installer/kernel/image, and will not upgrade when the linux-image-
generic Depends are already satisfied)
