Hello,

why is under Debian no possibility to install the script purge-old-kernels or the package bikeshed (this package includes the script purge-old-kernels).

Viele Grüße
Wolfgang

bikeshed seems to have been superseded by byobu.  That package contains
the purge-old-kernels script.

There appears to be a program called "purge-old-kernels" in the byobu 
package. This may or may not be the program you're looking for.

byobu is described as a "text window manager, shell multiplexer, 
integrated DevOps environment", which may be more than you need for such 
a simple script.

However, there appear to be no outstanding bugs which prevent the 
installation of byobu.

As an alternative to installing all of byobu, you could fetch the 
"purge-old-kernels" script from the upstream repository: 
https://github.com/achernya/byobu/blob/master/usr/bin/purge-old-kernels

(Or have you tried that already? What error did you get?)
