Public bug reported:

Recently whenever I perform a software update the /boot directory gets
filled with dozens of old, worn-out kernel builds. I'm getting sick of
having to remove them just to see them rebuilt each time a software
update is attempted and ultimately fails due to a full partition. The
/boot directory is of reasonable size. Here's df after my most recent
purge:

/dev/sda1                      482922   113456    344532  25% /boot

pmeidell@eclipse:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Release:        16.04
