Binary package hint: system-cleaner
Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex 8.10
$ apt-cache policy system-cleaner-gtk
system-cleaner-gtk:
Installed: 1.10.3-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 1.10.3-0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 1.10.3-0ubuntu1 0

100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
People when uninstalling stuff, should not be offered or at least *warned* when removing one of the last two installed kernel versions. It's really critical they know that when removing such packages, means that they won't be able to boot to an older kernel if anything goes bad (and sometimes it does go bad!).
As you say in your wiki homepage: "This affects especially people participating in the development of Ubuntu." - what I'm explaining stands for development release testers. |

The last two kernels may be or may not be in the ubuntu repositories, so the only way I can think of solving this is comparing linux-image-*-generic with the installed kernels in /boot/grub/menu.lst

This should probably be implemented along with heuristics that perform extra checks relating to key packages, including the kernel. |

TEST CASE: Install system without networking. Install system-cleaner. Verify that "sudo system-cleaner find" shows the currently running kernel. Upgrade to fixed system-cleaner. Verify that "sudo system-cleaner find" no longer shows the currently running kernel. |

SUMMARY FOR SRU: system-cleaner may remove the running kernel. This has been fixed by explicitly checking for the running kernel. update-manager uses a similar check.
PATCH: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~systemcleaner-hackers/systemcleaner/intrepid-sru-1-proposal/changes (revision 110).
TEST CASE: Install system without networking. Install system-cleaner. Verify that "sudo system-cleaner find" shows the currently running kernel. Upgrade to fixed system-cleaner. Verify that "sudo system-cleaner find" no longer shows the currently running kernel. |
