P.S. What on earth are you talking about? Other components get purged on update, and you already get confirmation before any update. And unlike other components, kernels already received golden treatment, by (1) leaving them installed indefinitely; and (2) leaving several previous versions in Synaptic.
It's time for some automatic purging. An non-default option to leave old kernels should be sufficient. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/768786 Title: Accumulating kernels is cruel and unusual punishment -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
