Please install a few old kernels manually, mark them autoremovable and
run u-u in verbose and debug mode.
If u-u removes those kernels this is not an u-u bug.
Then install those again and try removing them with apt.
If apt removes those kernels than this is not an APT bug.
** Changed in:
Erich, looks like that code wasn't reached or if it was the object
(list) "auto_removable" was empty.
Maybe the problem is outside this code. Does apt think those packages
are still installed?
apt list --installed 'linux-image*'
Also, what is the actual content of /boot/ ("ls -latr /boot/") ?

I haven't been able to test this since the systems I have here don't
have any kernel images lying around, but wondering if this patch could
help narrow down the cause?
Apply to a (copy) of /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade - possibly put in
/usr/local/bin/ so it is called before the package-installed

Bear in mind, I have a few external repositories, and we also ship a
bunch of external repositories by default. That said, none of those
should affect this as they don't contain kernels, nor do we pin any
kernels.
If you'd like,
@eeickmeyer Please run manually:
sudo unattended-upgrade --verbose --debug

Here's the results, looks like everything matches what you've got there.

I'm also wondering if these are laptops or desktops, and if laptops, are
they mainly on battery whilst not sleeping/charging? I ask since apt-
daily-upgrade.service has:

and so may be reporting:

Hi Balint!
Unfortunately, it looks like it didn't run at all. On my system, I came
up with this:
root@erich-KFocus:/var/log/unattended-upgrades# grep 'unused kernel'
/var/log/unattended-upgrades/*.gz
root@erich-KFocus:/var/log/unattended-upgrades#
That tells me it likely didn't run at all.
The configuration file is fine, it is the default value that's commented
out.
Please check unattended-upgrades logs if it performed kernel removals:
zgrep 'unused kernel' /var/log/unattended-upgrades/*.gz
Also please check if it ran at all.
