Today I ran apt-get dist-upgrade on my Raspberry Pi (Jessie) and saw  
that the packages included "bootloader" and "kernel," in addition to  
many others. I rebooted when the upgrade was finished and was surprised to  
see that the kernel was the same as the one that was installed prior to  
the dist-upgrade (4.14.98-v7+ #1200 SMP Tue Feb 12 20:27:48 GMT 2019  
armv7l GNU/Linux). I think the date on the kernel shown in the  
dist-upgrade listing was in April, but don't remember. Why didn't the  
dist-upgrade install that kernel?

Sorry, I mistakenly called the Raspbian version "Jessie," but it's  
"Stretch."
