Bug Description

Warning from zsys that bpool only had 11% free space when manually running "apt upgrade". There were also several packages that could be "auto-removed". Once apt autoremove was run, the linux-firmware was installed OK. Perhaps apt (or package install) could:
a) detect low disk space
b) note that free space can be made with autoremove
c) stop and raise an error, rather than crashing.
