For me, the relevant partition was
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
...
/dev/sda5 138G 39G 92G 30% /home
The size of .kde was correctly reported as 720M; plenty of space for that, but
kaboom claimed the partititon was over 80% in use and there was too little
space.
Although it was clear to me that something is wrong, I tried to "cajole" it by
clearing some space. I removed a ~13G folder, which reduced the reported use
to a little over 50%, then I removed a couple more dvd iso images, which
raised it back to over 70% (sorry, no exact numbers, as I did it all on the
graphic login, going to a separate virtual console for file manipulations). At
this point, I gave up.
It looks from here like an integer overflow... to validate this hunch, I just
ran df again, without the '-h' flag; numbers are in Ks
/dev/sda5 144237688 40886472 96024372 30% /home
and kaboom (on another user)...
freeDirSpace "/home/xxx" 3839676416
and finally, in Python,
>>> 96024372*1024
98328956928L
>>> 96024372*1024 % 2**32
3839676416L
Yep. Looks like it.
Thanks, and have fun,
Shai.
