My workaround:
dpkg --get-selections | grep 'linux-'
dpkg --get-selections | awk '/linux-(headers|image)-[0-9]\./ { print $1 }' |
grep -v "$(uname -r | sed -e 's/-generic//')" | sort -r -V -t- -k3 | tail -n+4
| xargs -r apt-get -qq -y purge
apt-get -qq -y install linux-{headers,image}-$(uname -r)
dpkg --get-selections | grep 'linux-'
# (optional)
# apt-get -qq -y install linux-{headers,image}-generic-lts-utopic 2>/dev/null
|| apt-get -qq -y install linux-{headers,image}-generic-lts-trusty
