Public bug reported: Hello everyone,
I'm a KDE neon user and but noticed that on my installation, the required hard disc space keeps increases after each kernel updates. The reason is that after installing a new kernel, old one's files are kept in '/usr/lib/modules/X.X.X-XX-generic/' and '/usr/src/linux- headers-X.X.X-XX/'. The old kernels can be manually removed using the package management which frees the space, however a simple autoremove does not delete the files. In the respective topic I created at the KDE neon forum (https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=309&t=169067), this bug is caused by ubuntu's kernel management that incorrectly marks the old kernel packages as manually installed while upgrading them. Therefore I quickly wanted to report this bug (hoping that it's not a duplicate, at least I did not find one). ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1907887 Title: Old kernel files aren't completely autoremoved To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1907887/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
