+
+It rebuilds the current one.
+
+The only issue with adding in kernel to the list is that it assumes the
+user has not done an earlier update, updated their kernel and not yet
+rebooted. In this case, it may make sense to include the kernel in the
+updates list and suggest they do a reboot first, then generate initrd
+etc. etc.
