Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The relevant dpkg terminal log says:

cat: write error: No space left on device
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-6.8.0-41-generic with 1.

So generating the initramfs fails because your /boot partition is full.
Please cleanup your boot partition. Feel free to continue to report any
other bugs you may find.

   update-initramfs should produce a more helpful error message when there isn't enough  free space--or provide an automatic tool for removal of old files
