Hi,
I see from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-release-nominators that you are
one of those who can do this "Nomination" of 1267059 9as per my recent
comment). If it's not done shortly I will raise a new bug, but that seems a
bit silly...
Thanks,
- steve

Note that the majority of these packages have been installed by

According to the comments within/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-
upgrades, this should automate autoremoval:
// Do automatic removal of new unused dependencies after the upgrade
// (equivalent to apt-get autoremove)
Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies "true";
but nothing happens (note the line "Packages that are auto removed: ''
":
$ unattended-upgrades --debug --dry-run
