[Bug 1439769] [NEW] various linux packages being marked as manually installed, still prevents 'apt-get autoremove' from doing the right thing for kernels

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

On vivid, my system is full of kernels that have been tagged as manually
installed again, not automatically installed; preventing 'apt-get
autoremove' from doing the right thing.

The only reason -10 was marked as auto-installed was that it went via an
'apt-get dist-upgrade' instead of update-manager (because of the
unrelated problem with debconf passthrough currently failing in vivid
and blocking upgrades).
