And when I look around there, it is mostly kernel stuff. Actually, after the upgrade to Etch, there were only 18 MB left in '/', and I could already salvage 15 MB. Still, not enough.
what about X? It still looks buggy to me, in a wider sense: One cannot permit an
install/upgrade that enters a dead-end road. Etch ought not have permitted the upgrade from Sarge (2.4.27), when it would kind of strangle itself. (On Sarge upgrades were no problem).
I disagree on that, apt is a package manager and can not guess what you are going to do in the future. One should not give only 133Mb to / partition where system libs reside. Furthermore you said this is an old box so what's the need in such a partition scheme for a non production (I guess) machine? Freeing enough space to install a 2.6.18 and remove 2.4 kernel is probably the only thing you can do. Uwe
