[Bug 1978871] Re: apt package missing apt-auto-removal

[Julian Andres Klode]

Well you figured out the versions we stopped shipping it, so you could
have just read the changelog to find out why that happened.

But anyway, we no longer protect the last installed kernel.

Title:
  apt package missing apt-auto-removal

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  #> lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS
  Release:	20.04

  #> apt-cache policy apt
  apt:
    Installed: 2.0.9
    Candidate: 2.0.9
    Version table:
   *** 2.0.9 500
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  The /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal file is supposed to be
  included in the apt package...

  #> apt-file find apt-auto-removal
  apt: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal
  open-infrastructure-system-build: /usr/share/live/build/hooks/normal/0196-remote-apt-auto-removal.hook.chroot

  But versions 2.0.8 and 2.0.9 do not include it...

  #> dpkg -L apt | fgrep -i post
  /etc/kernel/postinst.d

  #> ls /etc/kernel/postinst.d/
  ./  ../  initramfs-tools*  xx-update-initrd-links*  zz-update-grub*

  Can you please rebuild this package to include the missing file?
