Bug Description

Binary package hint: apt

As reported by kiko:

$ sudo apt-get install traceroute
 ...
 The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
   linux-headers-generic linux-headers-2.6.22-11-generic linux-headers-2.6.22-11
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

But then:
$ sudo apt-get autoremove
does nothing.
