Package: plasma-discover Version: 5.27.5-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I am reporting this bug on behalf of a user I support, but unfortunately without direct access to the affected system. After a few months of successful operation with Debian stable and automatic updates, the automatic updates recently started failing. It quickly turned out that the problem is a full "/boot" disk: update-initramfs was failing with "no space left on device". We managed to fix the issue by running "sudo apt autoremove" by hand. However, this is not something non-technical users will know to do. They reasonably expect the auto-updater to be able to deal with a continuous stream of updates. For some reason the Debian installer makes /boot really small by default (this one is 456MB), but the size of /boot does not really matter -- the size is finite in any case, so old kernels do eventually have to be removed, and when an auto-updater is configured, this should not require any manual user intervention. So, it would be great if plasma-discover, when it automatically installs updates, could also automatically remove old unused packages, to avoid /boot eventually running out of space. Kind regards, Ralf
