This is one of the reasons to keep a Linux live CD, like Knoppix,
PCLinixOS, DSL, toms, etc, around.
Since you have /home in a separate partition, 7Gig for everything else
should be enough. Cleaning out the used .DEBs will help, if your
upgrade method doesn't already do that.
I was just fiddling with the "tree" utility to see if it would help.
Unfortunatley, "tree -d -h" returns the size of the directory entries
themselves (4.0K, 8.0K, etc), rather than the cumulative size of the
files inside the directory which I was hoping for. Maybe someone else
has a suggestion.
Google pointed me to something called "Swiss File Knife",
http://stahlforce.com/dev/index.php?tool=stat
which seems to do what I want, but "sfk" isn't in the Debian archives
so I didn't try it out.
