Thanks for testing the fix and also thank you for preparing the
linux-purge script. I read it but integrating it to to current tools
would have been problematic and I hope you agree that the solution
finally used is minimally intrusive and achieves removing unused
kernels in a safe way.

The fix for unattended-upgrades is not uploaded yet but is available
Bionic and in the ppa:rbalint/scratch PPA if you would like to give it
a try.
