This link is what *should* have been easily discoverable for anyone
wondering about the vanished version:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1907262

Ideas:
* allow updating USNs even when no new binaries are available, simply because 
changelogs are *not*
* add this possibility to the list of theories ubuntu-security-status 
(update-manager) helpfully explains when reporting unknown packages
* make "DELETED" a more prominent feature on links from USNs (obvious: 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/5.4.0-56.62/+publishinghistory - not 
obvious: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/5.4.0-56.62)

Title:
  vanishing kernel 5.4.0-56-generic

Status in linux-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Kernel version 5.4.0-56-generic has just vanished off the face of the
  earth, after an update to that version some days ago. This was not
  updated from "proposed" or anything like that, it was updated in the
  normal way from "focal-updates".

  I had to revert several systems to kernel version 5.4.0-54-generic,
  after apt reported that my installed 5.4.0-56-generic packages were
  foreign, unknown and unaccounted-for.

  Have you lost your damn minds?

  By all means issue a fix for this outrageous situation.
