[Bug 1778551] Please test proposed package

[Chris J Arges]

Hello Seth, or anyone else affected,

Accepted apt into artful-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/1.5.2 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-artful to verification-done-artful. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-artful. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in

Title:
  Add linux-modules* packages to VersionedKernelPackages

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in apt source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in apt source package in Artful:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  == SRU Justification ==

  Impact: The 4.15 hwe kernel includes some package shuffling, so the
  VersionedKernelPackages list in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove needs
  to be updated to include linux-modules* packages.

  Fix: Backport the conf file changes from bionic.

  Test Case: Confirm that linux-modules* packages are autoremoved
  according to the same rules used for linux-image* packages.

  Regression Potential: Minimal. Probably the worst case is that some
  packages that should be autoremoved are not, but since these changes
  have been in use in bionic for a while now no regressions are
  expected.
