The workaround page says: "Warning: Do NOT use the 'rm' command to
delete files that were placed by the package manager, including kernel
files. It merely creates a new headache for you to solve when the
package manager cannot remove packages due to 'file not found'. Always
use the package manager to remove files that were placed by the package
manager."

Title:
  Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or
  Encrypted installation or on any installation, when /boot partition
  gets full

Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Currently if one chooses to use LVM or encrypted install, a /boot
  partition is created of 236Mb

  Once kernel updates start being released this partition soon fills
  until people are left unable to upgrade.

  While you and I might know that we need to watch partition space, many
  of the people we have installing think that a windows disk is a disk
  and not a partition, education is probably the key - but in the
  meantime support venues keep needing to deal with the fact the
  partition is too small and/or old kernels are not purged as new ones
  install.

  For workaround and sytem repair, see
