I spent a few more minutes to wade through a list of similar bug reports and duplicated most of them to this one. This shows that this is a very common problem. The install/update of some package fails because of out of space, but the user does not know about it and is just presented the "package install failed" message which leads to many unnecessary bug reports.
I think the current list of duplicates warrants setting the importance for this bug to something like "high", can somebody with enough rights do this? I also adjusted the title to show the intent of the bug a bit better. ** Summary changed: - Failure to update add/ or remove programs + Out-of-disk-space is not reported to the user when installing/updating packages fails ** Also affects: synaptic (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Out-of-disk-space is not reported to the user when installing/updating packages fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/312491 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
