OK, I can't seem to reproduce this. On a few VMs that have, the linux-image-generic package is remaining 'auto' after the update (provided that I marked it that way by hand before the update). Only the new linux-image-<version>-generic package is 'manual'. Unattended-upgrades does perform kernel updates, so it's likely installing/dist-upgrade-ing kernel upgrades as new packages (which must be why I'm seeing them as being marked 'manual'). Do you have any suggestions for automatically flagging obsolete kernels as 'auto', or might it be worth adding a feature to the kernel cleanup to do this? -Steve -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1175637 Title: Kernel updates are being marked as manually installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1175637/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
