If it does, apt-get has a bug. oem-config is intentionally installed, so apt-get's "autoremove" should not work. The auto-remove switch of apt-get should only apply to packages that were originally automatically installed to satisfy dependencies. It has nothing to do with whether the oem-config application is needed .
<off-topic rant> This is actually yet another reason that apt-get is deprecated upstream in favor of aptitude and why folks should not use apt-get. But I digress. </off-topic rant>

The above statement should read "So the system _thinks_they_were_installed_as_dependencies_ . . . ."
