Title:
  /boot/initrd.img-*.old-dkms files left behind

Status in dkms package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in dkms package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  One notices *.old-dkms files being left behind still sitting on the
  disk after purging the related kernel. This can cause /boot to become
  full, and when it gets really bad, even sudo apt-get autoremove won't
  fix the problem - only deleting the old-dkms files manually solves the
  problem.
