Public bug reported:
Keep a configurable number (per default maybe 3) of the youngest installed
generic kernel images.
Onlye the generic ones! Selfbuild kernels are not affected of that.
Ubuntu-Systems running very long without reinstallation. After some
years of updating there are a lot of old kernel-images installed but
never used. It is a lot of space for mobile devices like netbooks,
laptops or smaller.
It can be realize (like feudora does) with a meta-package like "kernel-lates"
which is assoziated with the last/youngest 3 kernels.
All older one would be autoremoved.
Of course there could be selected another solution to make it easier to
configure if someone need to keep all old kernels.
** Affects: gst-plugins-ugly0.10 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
