Bug Description

$ uname -a
Linux wkbx 5.4.0-40-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 23 00:01:04 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

"5.4.0-40-generic" was installed this morning at 2020-07-02_06h14m19s CET, leaving 5.4.0-39-generic pending for removal.

So...

$ sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-5.4.0-39 linux-headers-5.4.0-39-generic linux-image-5.4.0-39-generic linux-modules-5.4.0-39-generic linux-modules-extra-5.4.0-39-generic linux-modules-nvidia-440-5.4.0-39-generic

Just minutes after(?), I got a request to reboot, to finish the update.

Really necessary for removing the unused kernel and its associated packages?
