| Message-ID | <D8D5L-6Ex-1@gated-at.bofh.it> |
Package: linux-image-amd64
Version: 5.14.12-1
I tried to purge linux-image-5.14.0-1-amd64 yesterday and ran into an
error. I additionally tried to purge linux-image-5.14.0-2-amd64 today
following the release of linux-image-5.14.0-3-amd64 and ran into the
same error, which I've copied below.
Please can you advise how to clean up after the failure, is removal of
the old '/lib/modules/5.14.0-x-amd64' directories and their contents
sufficient?
$ sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-5.14.0-2-amd64
