I run out of disk this morning:

This is expected since I am, well, running out of space :)

In that graph, we can see the correlation with some of the logs up there.
So, I free some space, and I try again. What surprises me is what happens then:

Yes I run out of space again.
So my question is: how does the update process works? In particular, I would
expect a second pass not to use more space until it hits the place where it
left before. This clearly is wrong, so I don't understand how the update
process. Moreover, this is not the first (and not the last, until I buy a new
SSD) that I run out of space, so I wonder if there is some cleanup that can be
done before retrying and update.
