This is in response to Thomas A.F. Thorne's entry # 63. Hi there, so I went ahead and tried to download bikeshed as you suggested and the download failed, and at the end this error message came up... E: sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned and error code (1). I'm assuming the download failed because of dependency issues created by the bug we are all discussing here. I went ahead and tried to run bikeshed just in case and this error came up... E: invalid operation purge-old-kernals.... smack my head! I just realized my problem, I was misspelling kernel. I just ran bikeshed with the command and it just told me it's preparing to remove 831 mg..., just entered command df -h and /boot mounted on point is at 56%, down from 99%. Looks like a success so far, not sure what the error codes were all about earlier. I'm going to update to see what happens... and the update was successful. I'm sure someone will get a laugh out this little play by play. So is this something that I'll need to do wherever this bug rears it's head, or is this a one-time deal? Thank you for taking the time to post this solution.
