   One occasional problem I had on my previous laptop was it would fill up   
   the root partition every now and then with old cached package files. These   
   are normally not needed after the package is actually installed.   
      
   Check your disk usage for this cache with   
      
       du -ks /var/cache/apt/archives/   
      
   and see if it looks excessive. Anything you delete from there should be   
   automatically downloadable again if it’s needed. ;)
