autoremove seems to want to remove the second to last regular kernel on my systems also. I always have a bunch of mainline kernels installed on my computers, and maybe that is the reason.
Example: $ sudo apt-get autoremove Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: gconf-service gconf-service-backend gconf2 gconf2-common libavahi-glib1 libbonobo2-0 libbonobo2-common libcanberra0 libgconf-2-4 libgnome-2-0 libgnome2-common libgnomevfs2-0 libgnomevfs2-common libllvm3.8 libmircommon5 liborbit-2-0 linux-headers-4.4.0-67 linux-headers-4.4.0-67-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-72 linux-headers-4.4.0-72-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-77 linux-headers-4.4.0-77-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-83 linux-headers-4.4.0-83-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-92 linux-headers-4.4.0-92-generic linux-image-4.4.0-67-generic linux-image-4.4.0-72-generic linux-image-4.4.0-77-generic linux-image-4.4.0-83-generic linux-image-4.4.0-92-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-67-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-72-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-77-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-83-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-92-generic sound-theme-freedesktop 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 37 to remove and 0 not upgraded. After this operation, 1,535 MB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n Abort. The current regular kernel is 4.4.0-93 and I expect 4.4.0-92 to be left alone. I am running servers 16.04.3 and apt 1.2.24. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1427910 Title: apt doesn't correctly fill APT::NeverAutoRemove To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1427910/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
