Bug Description
Expected outcome:
After installation, no packages should pend autoremoval (they should have been apt --purge autoremove'd during the installation) and (if 'install updates during installation' option is left enabled during installation) there should be no pending updates.
Actual outcome:
Doing a 'minimal' (set of installed packages) subiquity installation of 18.10 with the (default) 'download updates while installing' option left enabled, you end up with many packages pending autoremoval, as well as pending updates. See below for apt CLI output.
To do:
Please consider reviewing / updating the test cases to improve upon this for 19.04 and later. Thank you.
