Title:
  package linux-image-extra-3.13.0-54-generic 3.13.0-54.91 failed to
  install/upgrade: run-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools
  exited with return code 1

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  >My /boot partition is full because it contains partially installed versions of linux. I have been using 
  == sudo apt-get update ; 
  == sudo-apt-get upgrade .  
  >Those need to be updated to delete old versions of Linux when installing a new one.  At least they could ask the user what to do.  In the future I will use:
  == sudo apt-get autoclean
  == sudo apt-get clean
  == sudo apt-get autoremove
  == sudo apt-get update
  == sudo apt-get upgrade -f
  == sudo apt-get autoclean
  == sudo apt-get clean
  == sudo apt-get autoremove
  >In the meantime, I cannot install new software that uses the /boot partition. Linux isn't ready for prime time. It shoots itself in the foot.
