Similarly, it would be great, if unattended-upgrade, apt and whatnot
package tool software could predict that the requested install will not
fit in system and act accordingly. Then the error in post-installation
script would not happen then. The size could be hard to know in general
case. If I have understood correctly, Software Updater uses information
about older kernels as basis for calculating such a limit.
