Ubiquity creates space for enough kernels. The system is not managing
that space later. Not ubiquity's fault.
These two issues together create the problem on a small /boot partition:
apt: apt-get remove/purge/autoremove is blocked by the (always-failing) kernel
install (not enough space on device
apt-get remove/purge/autoremove is blocked by the (always-failing)
kernel install (not enough space on device)

Firstly, me too, this is super annoying. As a rule of thumb any
'feature' that *requires* the user to drop to CLI to put in regular
manual commands *to keep the system secure and updated* ... in a desktop
/ consumer OS... is a bug.
It seems there are separate issues here that could be addressed

Someone give me the advise to use the LVM option on a fresh Xubuntu
15.04 install so i did. Use one internal drive, a 256GB SSD and a 2TB
network drive (small NAS) for external storage. Hope there will be a fix
to autoremove those old kernels from /boot partitions before upgrading a
new one.

I have this problem but removing old kernels was only partly successful,
probably because I used rm and not apt-get method. In fact, if you have
a laptop, why use LVM at all? You are scarcely going to wander around
with an external hard disk attached to it for the extension to a logical
volume.

Trying this on a Dell Inspiron 15 7547 running 100% Ubuntu (No dual
booting). We're unable to upgrade from Ubuntu 14.10 to 15.04 due to this

Same problem as indicated above on 14.04 LTS. Why are "old" kernels left
on a drive that is too small to begin with? Thank you in advance for
fixing it. If fix would allow to expand partition (at least double it)
and remove "old" kernels, this would be great!

Increasing the boot partition does not solve the underlying problem of
old kernels. Is the size large enough now to accommodate enough
kernels? If it is, we should tackle the real problem of removing old
kernels.

This bug is tedious. /boot holds only 3 kernels for me and it seems
there is a new kernel every couple of weeks. So, each time, I need to go
and delete the previous 1-2 manually. Why do I have to babysit my
machine? Lucky I do not want to do unattended upgrades.

APT::AutoRemove::RecommendsImportant and APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant are

Especially a problem when setting up systems for clients, who you only
visit once or twice a year. The kernel updates fill the boot partition

The issue here isn't so much the absolute space initially allocated to
the /boot/ LV, it is that the installer allocates 100% of the Volume
Groups space.
The great advantage of LVM is that space can by dynamically allocated
