I have read every thread I could find -- even the ones that say that the question has been answered elsewhere but none of them address the specific issue I am having. Update Manager ran and produced errors relating to unmet dependency and suggested using apt-get install -f which fails with this message:
Unpacking linux-headers-3.5.0-36 (from .../linux-headers-3.5.0-36_3.5.0-36.57~precise1_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-headers-3.5.0-36_3.5.0-36.57~precise1_all.deb (--unpack):
unable to create `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.5.0-36/arch/arm/mach-iop32x/include/mach/glantank.h.dpkg-new' (while processing `./usr/src/linux-headers-3.5.0-36/arch/arm/mach-iop32x/include/mach/glantank.h'): No space left on device
I suspect that the last 5 words No space left on device are significant but df and du both show adequate space. So I am wondering, what device needs more space?
Ouput from df -h

and (ii) the output ofmount
. dpkg will clean up the files after it finished working, so it might appear that you have enough space when in fact you don't. Consider runningapt-get clean
before you start dpkg.watch -n 1 df -h
in a terminal while doing theapt-get install
(it will slow down a bit you i/o but you will know which file system is too small)
