I don't think this is a ppc specific problem  and so I'm posting here.

In response to the sudo security alert I've upgraded 1 sid workstation
and 3 woody servers (2 i386 and 1 ppc).  All are fine except for the
woody ppc upgrade.

During "aptitude upgrade" dpkg couldn't write to its file because /var
was at 100% "no room left".  The package installed but something was
awry.  When running sudo I get the following before commands are
executed:

Same results here on woody i386. As I write this, it's been reported as
bugs #282777, #282778, and #282786.
