Comment 83 for bug 153980

Dear Gurus,

I tried the suggested fix and it only NEARLY worked for me:
I got the following error:

> Not enough free disk space
> The upgrade aborts now. The upgrade needs a total of 2416M free
> space on disk '/'. Please free at least an additional 842M of disk space > on '/'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former
> installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'.
>
> Restoring original system state
>
> Aborting
> Reading package lists: Done
> Reading state information: Done
> Reading state information: Done
> Reading state information: Done

I've already thrown out over 4Gb from my home directory but
I still get the error. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I've spent all day trying to upgrade to 7.10 from 7.04 but
I just can't get it past this state.

(Sorry if this isn't the write place to post questions but I couldn't
find where to submit questions on the web-page for this bug.)

Thanks in advance,

Maurice
