Bug#28952: apt: lack of space in /var/cache/apt/archives



Package: apt
Version: 0.1.7

There is a problem with insufficient free space in
/var/cache/apt/archives.  I received the following message.

E: Sorry, you don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/

Under dselect with ftp access, it is possible to download a few files
at a time until everything is updated.  I hope that you are eventually
able to make that change in apt-get.  The additional intelligence
which is added in apt-get should make it easier to handle downloading
a few files at a time than it is under dselect's ftp option.
