Bug Description

1) Ubuntu 14.04.
2) kexec-tools (1:2.0.6-0ubuntu2)
3) I expect that when removing kexec-tools it removed the crashkernel line that it added
4) It doesn't get removed (tried both remove and purge)because kexec-tools doesn't call update-grub

A workaround is just to manually do an update-grub.

This was fixed at least in 16.10 (and likely in 16.04 as well).
(kexec-tools no longer makes the change by default).

Changed in kexec-tools (Ubuntu):
