Title:
dkms package causes linux-headers-* packages stay in the system
forever consuming disk space
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in dkms package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Because of some veird dependency in dkms package, on each kernel
upgrade old linux-headers-* packages are not getting removed,
consuming a lot of disk space. Finally, root partition runs out of
space which causes serious issues. Without dkms, everything works
fine. I checked dependency and it indeed recommends all old packages.
