It is hard to know, if /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal is called
in conjunction with removing a kernel or installing a kernel. The kernel
in question, whose version is passed as a command line argument, has
"install" as desired action according to dpkg at the time of calling the
script anyway. It would be logical that the state had been updated by
that time, as the script is a post installation script.

Title:
  /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal wants to remove all kernels
  except the latest one

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After installing a 3rd kernel currently 3.19.0-12-generic, the
  /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels file looks normal listing the
  3.19.0-11-generic and 3.19.0-12-generic with 3.19.0-10-generic listed
  to be autoremoved. But once autoremove is completed the machine
  requests to be rebooted and at that time the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d
  /01autoremove-kernels file lists the 3.19.0-12-generic and
  3.19.0-10-generic kernels. So upon rebooting the 3.19.0-11-generic is
  requested to be autoremoved leaving only one kernel the latest one
  3.19.0-12-generic.
