http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#sufficient-space 
(probably just now) states:

"Use a temporary /var/cache/apt/archives: You can use a temporary cache 
directory from another filesystem (USB storage device, temporary hard disk, 
filesystem already in use, ...) 

_Note_:  Do not use an NFS mount as the network connection could be 
interrupted during the upgrade."

I think that's sufficient and we can close your bug. Do you agree?


cheers,
	Holger
