Clean. I wrote this little perlscript which i hook from APT:
https://8n1.org/raw/8337/e0ec

At my workplace we manage >150 servers for customers, this saved us a
lot of space in backups and on the physical serves. For what it's worth,
i don't think Ubuntu should introduce dbus services just to clean up
kernels.

Ubuntu Server installs are bloated enough as it is.
But that's just my 25 cents.
