/var likely needs more space if you are running into update problems. if you have a lot of packages in /var/cache/apt/archives then you can clean them out and then apt-get will download any new ones you need when you install, update or reinstall. with a slow connection it is a pain in the butt to get rid of these because sometimes you do want them back. i make a backup of these *.deb files on an external USB device so that if i do need some back i can get them without having to redownload them. the other thing to look at is the output of: % df -i to make sure your inodes aren't running out. songbird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
