System update won't update linux kernel

I am upgrading my system with

yaourt -Syua

Everything works fine, except 'linux' package. Here is what happens:

(upgrade continues with other packages)

Now, if I run

yaourt -S linux

everything goes perfectly fine.

Why can't it work during pan-system update? It has been like that since months.
