Tested with both case 1 and 2, on a system with checkbox-ci-mailer and checkbox-autostart-desktop installed.
Case 1: sudo apt-get purge checkbox-autostart-desktop
It will try to retain the dependency, so the checkbox-autostart-server will be installed.
Case 2: sudo apt-get purge checkbox-autostart-desktop checkbox-autostart-server
This time it will try to remove the checkbox-autostart-desktop and the checkbox-ci-mailer package.
So from case 2, I think this issue does not exist anymore.
To this issue, we can simply ask it to purge these 2 autostart packages to get them removed. Although I think this is not what we want for CI, as we still need it for sending out notifications. Otherwise the following command in checkbox-ci-mailer.conf might fail: "exec /usr/bin/checkbox-ci-script.sh mailer"[1]. Maybe we can close this bug as Invalid or something else?
