Hi,
Today I've run `apt-get update` and `apt-get upgrade` to get security fixes.
It updated libc6 and some other essential packages.
Should I reboot my production Web server? If yes, how often?
If you install the debian-goodies package, you can run checkrestart to see
what programs are still holding open old libraries - though there are some
false positives.
You can then decide whether you just need to restart a particular service
(checkrestart will tell you what, in most cases), or whether you need to reboot.
Ok, so I decided to install the Debian-goodies on my machine to test that
checkrestart command but.... it broke, so according to the Debian policy I get
to keep both pieces. ;-)
Any way to fix the pieces?

The "No space left on drive" is the wrong symptom, there is plenty of space on
all partitions.

Is not that line a dead giveaway? Your / partition is full.
