Public bug reported: Ubuntu 18.04.3 (LXLE 18.04.3) i386 "apt -y autoremove --purge" Expected Behavior: Remove old kernels, except running kernel and 2nd most recent kernel. Observed Behavior: Removes all kernels except running kernel. Well, itat least warns before removing the running kernel. Other notes: apt config file "/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels" contains no data for the section APT::NeverAutoRemove. There are just the empty braces. Executable file "/etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal" seems to want a configuration file containing a section with APT:VersionedKernelPackages, but there is none. I created a file "/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/200versiondkernelpackages" which seemed to solve the problem for me. It may not be the general solution.
