Unsupported and no longer available packages can be dealt with better by extending u-r-u, for example. They are not a valid argument for autoremoving packages still suggested by other packages.
As I mentioned before, it seems reasonable to me that u-r-u would autoremove more than apt by setting SuggestsImportant to false. That solves (well, it improves, it's not an optimal solution) the problem of accumulated cruft during dist upgrades while at the same time not affecting operation on a running system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1725861 Title: APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant "false" should be the default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1725861/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
