Bug description:
When running kernel version 4.4.0-78 (for example) and the unattended-
upgrade packages installs a new kernel 4.4.0-79 (for example) the
linux-cloud-tools-4.4.0-78 and linux-cloud-tools-4.4.0-78-generic
packages are removed by the Remove-Unused-Dependencies rule, because
unlike "normal" kernel packages they are not excluded by
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels.
The linux-cloud-tools package has the hyper-v integration services
daemons in it, so it's deletion leaves some of the integration not
working.
Could /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels be updated so other
hyper-v users aren't caught out by this?
Thanks,
Ian.
