After apt autoremove, my current installed packages are: $ dpkg -l linux-image'*' | grep ^ii ii linux-image-4.18.0-10-generic 4.18.0-10.11 amd64 Signed kernel image generic ii linux-image-4.18.0-11-generic 4.18.0-11.12 amd64 Signed kernel image generic ii linux-image-generic 4.18.0.11.12 amd64 Generic Linux kernel image $ To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1803587/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
