Bug description:
Old kernels are not being autoremoved in spite of being marked auto
and not being in APT::NeverAutoRemove. Debugging with the
pkgAutoRemove "true"; option of APT I can see lines like this:
Following dep: systemtap:amd64 2.3-1ubuntu1 Suggests linux-image:amd64 ,
provided by linux-image-3.2.0-63-generic:amd64 3.2.0-63.95
Marking: linux-image-3.2.0-63-generic:amd64 3.2.0-63.95, Curr=3.2.0-63.95,
Inst=3.2.0-63.95
I can confirm that removing (or marking as auto) systemtap fix the
issue.
root # apt-mark auto systemtap
systemtap set to automatically installed.
root # apt-get autoremove
