Public bug reported: Every month or so my system informs me my root partition is full. When I check the status via "df -h" it shows "/var/lib/ureadahead/" as taking up several GB of disk space. Running fsck seems to solve the issue temporarily, but it's inconvenient to run, as I have to unmount my root partition.
My system is fully patched and up-to-date.
