Public bug reported:
When running an LTS kernel, purge-old-kernels should not remove the
latest non-LTS kernel (and its metapackage). For example:
$ dpkg -l 'linux-image-generic*' | grep ^.i
ii linux-image-generic 3.13.0.88.94 amd64 Generic
Linux kernel image
ii linux-image-generic-lts-vivid 3.19.0.61.44 amd64 Generic
Linux kernel image
ii linux-image-generic-lts-xenial 4.4.0.24.14 amd64 Generic
Linux kernel image
This system has the base kernel meta package and two LTS meta packages.
Only the currently running and latest installed kernels should remain.
If this is running:
$ uname -r
3.19.0-51-generic
And these are installed:
$ dpkg -l 'linux-image-[34]*' | grep ^.i | cut -c-90
ii linux-image-3.13.0-85-generic 3.13.0-85.129
ii linux-image-3.13.0-86-generic 3.13.0-86.131
ii linux-image-3.13.0-87-generic 3.13.0-87.133
ii linux-image-3.13.0-88-generic 3.13.0-88.135
ii linux-image-3.19.0-51-generic 3.19.0-51.58~14.04.1
ii linux-image-3.19.0-59-generic 3.19.0-59.66~14.04.1
ii linux-image-3.19.0-61-generic 3.19.0-61.69~14.04.1
ii linux-image-4.4.0-22-generic 4.4.0-22.40~14.04.1
ii linux-image-4.4.0-24-generic 4.4.0-24.43~14.04.1
The following kernels should remain:
ii linux-image-3.13.0-88-generic 3.13.0-88.135
ii linux-image-3.19.0-51-generic 3.19.0-51.58~14.04.1
ii linux-image-3.19.0-61-generic 3.19.0-61.69~14.04.1
ii linux-image-4.4.0-24-generic 4.4.0-24.43~14.04.1
