Bug#235375: autopartitioning scheme makes /var too big



Package: partman
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i

I picked the automatic partitioning scheme that create /, home/, /var/,
/var/mail/, /usr/local, etc. It thinks that 970 mb out of 40 gb is
enough for /var; in my experience this is a bit low due to apt cache.
Also, the 1.5 gb /var/mail partition makes this seem a rather
specialised scheme, only for mail servers. Combinding that into /var for
a 2.5 gb /var would be more general, IMHO. (This scheme also gave me a
2.1 gb unmounted partition that was supposed to be swap, see other bug).
