** Description changed: 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.
