This bug was fixed in the package livecd-rootfs - 2.525.20 --------------- livecd-rootfs (2.525.20) bionic; urgency=medium
[ Steve Langasek ] * Drop /etc/update-motd.d/51-cloudguest from cloud images; this is not consistent with current Ubuntu Advantage product language. Any future customizations to update-motd for cloud images should be done via a package instead. [ Julian Andres Klode ] * Minimize the number of manually installed packages in images by marking dependencies of metapackages as automatically installed. (LP: #1800610); but do not mark direct dependencies of ubiquity as auto installed. This caused cryptsetup to remain auto on the installed system in bionic (see LP #1801629) -- Steve Langasek <steve.langa...@ubuntu.com> Thu, 14 Mar 2019 11:04:49 -0700 ** Changed in: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of नेपाली भाषा समायोजकहरुको समूह, which is subscribed to Xenial.

We fixed this in cosmic, in trunk r1695, by including a new script that marks as automatically installed all dependencies of manually-installed metapackages. [Test case] Run a build and check in the log that some packages are visited by the script in more than one iterations. [Regression potential] First of all, this does not change existing installations; only new ones. The change can cause packages to be autoremoved that were not autoremoved before after performing a package management operation, or dependency change in packages. The change is essentially safe: Since we only mark dependencies of packages in the section "metapackages", and since those receive special treatment by apt: 1. removal due to dependencies/conflicts: the manual bit transfers from the meta to its deps 2. explicit removal (apt remove meta): meta and its dependencies are removed It is not possible to accidentally uninstall the entire metapackage with its dependencies.
