@jarnos #61 this is a separate issue fixed later, calculating upgradable packages leaves the upgradable packages in the cache, and u-u counts them as the reverse dependencies of the first kernel to be removed. This keeps the first kernel on the system, but when there are no upgradable packages in a later run this kernel can be removed, too.

The printout is confusing indeed, but no harm was done, since only valid autoremovals were performed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1624644 Title: By default settings unattended-upgrade does not automatically remove kernel packages that become unused in conjunction with updating by other software To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1624644/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
