Ian Weisser, I think in 16.04, in contrary to what you claim, packages are not autoremoved before doing anything else. https://github.com/mvo5/unattended-upgrades tells: "Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-New-Unused-Dependencies - boolean (default:True)
Remove any new unused dependencies after the upgrade finished." Anyway, in my 16.04 system, where I have the setting enabled (as default) and unattended-upgrades enabled (via Software & Updates), I currently have 6 kernels installed, so I think it is not doing its job well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1357093 Title: Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or Encrypted installation or on any installation, when /boot partition gets full To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1357093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
