   update-initramfs should produce a more helpful error message when there isn't enough  free space--or provide an automatic tool for removal of old files

Title:
  package linux-firmware 1.187.36 failed to install/upgrade: installed
  linux-firmware package post-installation script subprocess returned
  error exit status 1

Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I don't know.. I have no idea.. you've made this too difficult for
  average users (non technical people) and it isn't fair. Something is
  failing on my system related to installing linux-firmware and that
  sounds bad. Now I (a regular person) have to drop everything and try
  to figure it out? Maybe if I don't give you what you want here in this
  further information section I don't get help or the thing to be fixed?
