No. Automatic removing is supposed to work in 16.04 and later by default. But even in 16.04 it works only, if you let unattended-upgrades install all kernel updates. I have not tested later releases, but I guess it is the same thing.
I think removing should work in 16.04 and later, if you use the configuration recommended in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RemoveOldKernels. (i.e. setting Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies "true";) This configuration works by 14.04, too, if you let unattended-upgrades install all kernel updates. -- 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/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1357093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
