Title:
software-updater refuses to upgrade, needs a button to clean /boot
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
I am running trusty with full disk encryption and thus a separate /boot partition.
Software updater, at times, fails to complete the upgrade telling me that /boot does not have enough free disk-space.
Well, it should have the button to "run apt-get autoremove" to
automatically remove packages that may be using disk space on /boot.
(Because on trusty, old kernels are automatically marked for
autoremoval)
This will also lower the amount of support requests elmo gets in the
office.
Also I believe infinity would be happy to not be bugged about enabling
autoremoval with unattended apt by default.
And mpt would be happy, that upgrades are self-serviced.
mvo, please, please, implement this =)
