   More data points:   
   Rebooted (via grub menu) to original 22.04.1 (First install after upgrade from   
   20.04.2 )   
   ran uname -r   
   and saw "5.15.0-47-generic" -- No mention of oracle.   
      
   After running sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade   
   I now see in the current kernel running uname -r "5.15.0-1017-oracle"   
     ...Huh??   
      
   Output of apt list --installed | grep oracle as follows:   
      
   $ apt list --installed | grep oracle

   Definitely nothing I have ever asked for, or needed   
   And by the way, there were no signs of oracle (IIRC) in any 20.04.* version   
   If I get desperate, I might just resume using the original 22.04.1, I guess.   
   But other than the puzzle I see no   
   ill-effects (yet) from the new misnamed kernel.   
      
   Still hoping...
