New APT removes kernels

[devil]

Latest apt has a new policy of removing kernels, which manifests in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels. If you want to keep your kernels installed, for now you will have to edit  /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove. There is a section  headlined VersionedKernelPackages. You need to put a # in front of  "linux-.*";, save the file and apt update.

Das neueste apt hat eine Richtlinie zum Entfernen von Kerneln, die sich in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels manifestiert. Wenn ihr eure Kernel behalten wollt, müsst ihr /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove bearbeiten. Es gibt einen Abschnitt mit der Überschrift VersionedKernelPackages. Dort muss ein # vor "linux-.*"; Dann die Datei sichern und apt update ausführen.

Thanks for clarification!
Because I did not understand the hint

Denn ich habe den Hinweis nicht verstanden

Well, I added to my apt.conf:

Code: [Select]

# do not remove kernels automaticly
APT::Get::AutomaticRemove::Kernels false;and all is okay..

The correct way in siduction is to wait for an update of the "apt-conf-siduction" package, which updates the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/80siduction file.

EDIT:
If no '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/80siduction' exists, no 'apt-conf-siduction'' is installed you can create your own, eg /etc/ap/apt.conf.d/80myconf and insert 'APT::Get::AutomaticRemove::Kernels false;

So if you don't have apt-conf-siduction installed, you may want to install it now to prevent kernels from being removed. If you had followed my initial advice to put a # in front of  "linux-.*"; in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove, you can remove that after installing the package.

Thank you all for that

Good to know, probably something I would have missed. Thank you.

For me. I don't need Kernel-Remover in the future? apt-get autoremove do that?

1. Install the apt-conf-siduction package.

2. Use

Code: [Select]

# apt autoremove as before.
