While updating Debian, I got "you don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/."

I came up empty handed while doing a search here. Can someone post a link? I'm sure it's been covered before.

Thanks in advanced.

Well it suggest you are seriously out of space - what 'does df -h' show?
You may be able to clear some space by 'apt-get clean' which will delete
all cached package files.
Or (If you've overloaded the template filesystem) you could allocate
more disk space than the default 10G.

apt-get clean took care of the problem! Thank you very much.

Cheers,
Elsie
