Public bug reported:

When I start updating, I receive after a while the message, that the
update an not continue, because of "file system full".

What makes me angry is, that:

. it is not mentioned which filesystem is meant
- I have at least two filesystems which may cause some troubles. / and /tmp - 
If I would know, which is meant, maybe I could help manually
- since a full filesystem is usually not a big problem, which could easily be 
worked around (checking first, if there is enough room for all new packages, - 
if not, install package by package and then, when everything is full, stop by 
the package that wont fit on the disk. - Also: if the previous installs have 
worked, we may never need (temporarily) such a high amount of diskspace, as it 
currently seem to be the case.


So. --- What can I do to escape this?

I don't know, which package the installation process is in.
