Yesno depending on how the meta package is installed, automatically or
manual. However, writhing scripts to manage something to a user's
individual needs isn't hard to do.

Hello!
What is the recommended way to publish the script? I guess Launchpad would be
the right place. And using Git repository might be a good idea. I have got a
Launchpad account (jarnos). Is it better to create a project in Launchpad or to
create a PPA? Detailed instruction would be welcome.
Here is some update. My script does not use linux-version anymore. But I named
the script linux-purge. It can remove kernels even in some problem cases where
e.g. there are dependency problems due to an unsuccessful kernel update (e.g.
due to full /boot partition). It provides optional UI for
Now that linux-base is part of .?ubuntu 16.04, I think it would be good to add
a linux-kernel removal tool to linux-base. On the other hand, I think such a
script is especially useful for some older releases, since e.g. Trusty tends to
mark kernel updates as being manually installed packages
