I think removing "newly unused" packages is an ugly hack. Deciding which
packages are excessive or unneeded should not depend on how some
packages were removed previously. If the reason for this automatic
remove thing is to get rid of excessive kernels, a specific tool for
that could be used. I have written such a tool. It is called linux-purge
(https://launchpad.net/linux-purge)
