Ok. My understanding of this bug is that it's unlikely to make anyone's system unusable, and lunar is very nearly released, so there's (very nearly) an upgrade path that preserves the fix. Marking the kinetic task as Wont Fix, and releasing to jammy.

[Test plan] Including a test case for this in our comprehensive integration test suite which runs as autopkgtest, so passing autopkgtest = good. [Where problems could occur] Files could end up being removed too soon if the code is otherwise wrong?
