There are a few ways to alleviate the congestion. 1 - remove unwanted packages The X windows stuff takes up a lot of space for example. 2 - move various dirs to a USB drive or SD card. /opt and /var are two good candidates. /usr could be done but that requires some experimentation. If certain libraries are not available at boot time, your could have problems. 3 - create a new filesystem on a SD card and use that for your personal stuff. What I did was to create a new filesystem on a SD card and mounted it as /home. Now I have gobs of space for my stuff. In retrospect, I should have done #2 and #3.
