Title:
  Malformed 01autoremove-kernels apt file

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After updating my system earlier today, I wanted to perform an apt
  search and it failed with this error:

  E: Syntax error /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels:20: Malformed
  tag

  Upon inspecting the file I saw this malformed line (2nd line):

     "^.*-modules-4\.4\.0-24-generic$";
   ^@h½N^H<88>ÿÿodules-4\.4\.0-28-generic$";
