No, that is a feature request which is already implemented. Any
person who believes it is not working for them should file a _new_
report, and specific cases will be investigated. Note that you must
run ‘apt-get autoremove’ periodically to clean up the old images, and
that kernel images installed prior to some version of apt will still
have to be removed manually.

This report concerns only the situation of Gary Shook, that is now
resolved by other means. No bug was identified hence this is marked
invalid. If you are unwilling to file a new bug report there is not
much that will be done to assist you.
