cache/apt/archives FULL

Hi all,

I've running UT on my (BH) PinePhone (off the SD card) for a week or so.  

I run apt update && apt upgrade every few days, but when I ran it today I got an error message after I ran apt upgrade: E: You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/

I installed the image using "Rufus" on a clean/new SD card.  Haven't had any issues running Update/upgrade until now.

Any ideas for a fix other than wiping the SD card and starting over???

Thanks.

  FYI, apt clean and apt autoclean did not rectify the problem...

I think you forgot to resize the sd card partition. In linux you can do that like this:

sudo parted /dev/mmcblk2p1 resizepart 1 100%
sudo resize2fs /dev/mmcblk2p1

Replace the device name (/dev/mmcblk2p1) with your device.
