Binary package hint: thunderbird

This is a string report. All packages failed to upgrade due to insufficient partition space. See other bugs by same author. Should have been a single error report. Priority = subzero. Cheers Thomas.

Thanks for your report.

The cause of the failure is:
Unpacking thunderbird (from .../thunderbird_2.0.0.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu2_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/thunderbird_2.0.0.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu2_i386.deb (--unpack):
 failed in buffer_write(fd) (10, ret=-1): backend dpkg-deb during `./usr/lib/thunderbird/components/libpipnss.so': No space left on device

Please free some space and retry. I'm closing this report because it is not a bug in Ubuntu.

don't hesitate to submit any new bug.
