KVM 1.1 and new Kernel

How does this effect support for the Spice Protocol? Can spice be used with KVM 1.1, is Spice not part of that package?
 
The correct syntax of the phrase I think should be:
"Is it possible to reinstall kernel 2.6.32-12? - was removed during the update so I had to go back to -11"
Btw, really a kernel upgrade should never ever remove previous version. In any case the .deb should still be in /var/cache/apt/archives
(# ls -l /var/cache/apt/archives/ | grep kernel)
 
I don't recall the details, but I'm pretty sure that sometime with aptitude full-upgrade you are notified that some packages will be removed (older version), including the kernel, and I always hit "y", don't know if you hit "n" it retains them or just aborts the upgrade. Next time I see this I will try to take note of more info, seems strange did not happened to you too, but don't think I can have any settings that can affect this (I've not customized apt behaviour).
 
It happend today in a 1.9 proxmox, so I report it back here since I think is a common issue with debian or with proxmox kernel package name/release (I've no idea) and not related to proxmox version.

yes, and you get told that it is removed. I do not see any problem here.

if you want to keep the old kernel, do 'apt-get dist-upgrade'
