Hi Brian,

Sorry for the delay. Your message got buried in the maelstrom of emails.

I'm using the Software Updater that gets called from the System Settings 
GUI. I get there by clicking the cogwheel in the upper right corner, 
select About this computer, and hitting the Install Updates button in 
the lower right corner of the Details pop-up.  I was unaware of the 
'sudo apt autoremove' option until I saw your email. I just ran it, and 
it cleaned up a bunch of files, although a couple of errors were 
reported along the way, but now the boot directory looks healthy again.


Thanks for the tip!

Kind regards,

Philip Meidell
