I have many linux-images now that are saved which is hoggig my /usr space. I can no longer update my Ubuntu software because of the latest linux-image update download:
Unpacking linux-headers-3.0.0-23-generic (from .../linux-headers-3.0.0-23-generic_3.0.0-23.39_i386.deb) ...

so, I only have 527448 left in /usr for a lot more that is needed but, this breaks my package system since linux-headers-3.0.0-23-generic is downloaded but, not installed. apt-get -f install doesn't work because the No space left error is still there. Neither does --purge remove!

Package linux-headers-3.0.0-23-generic is not installed, so not removed
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-headers-generic : Depends: linux-headers-3.0.0-23-generic but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
Not installed, so not removed!
I need to remove the older kernel linux-images but, Synaptic won't remove them without fixing the package system first. So, its a catch-22 situation. I need more space in /usr by removing some older kernal linux-images but I can't remove them because of the no space left in /usr that causes this broken package system!
