Gerhard GauBling, this is after the upgrade where I did not get an error
like this during or before the upgrade ended.  This is afterwards.

  I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 now but, now the Synaptic Package Manager (on
Update for other new updates too) says that the package system is
broken:

The package system is broken

Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them, since they 
are a common source of problems.
Furthermore run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f

 Running apt-get install -f renders this same error (after the version
upgrade):

dpkg: error processing 
/var/cache/apt/archives/linux-headers-3.2.0-24-generic_3.2.0-24.37_i386.deb 
(--unpack):
 error creating directory `./usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-24-generic': No space 
left on device

 /usr shows to be:

df /usr
Filesystem     1K-blocks    Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5        4504400 3917004    361624  92% /usr <---- at 92% full so, why 
does Ubuntu 12.04 think that /usr has no space left?  Is this saying that needs 
more than the 8% that is available?

 If so, the the root directory, where /usr is, shows to be 54% full!
Therefore, it looks like Ubuntu 12.04 is not able to use that free space
in the root directory!  Or, why does it say that /usr is 92% full when
it has another 1.3gig of free space in the root directory?  This is
whats dumb about this.
