Thanks again for your help. I just tried what you said. That is I did: sudo apt-get clean and it seems it did nothing. And I did check my disk. It is at 75%.
I then tried to upgrade as you said, and I had the same message than the last time. It seems that the package netcat-traditional always gets in the way, so I tried different things to get rid of it. First via Synaptic, then with apt-get -f remove netcat-traditional and with apt-get --purge remove netcat-traditional It always says "(Lecture de la base de données... 95%dpkg : erreur fatale irréversible, abandon : la liste des fichiers pour le paquet « netcat-traditional » n'a pas de retour à la ligne en fin de fichier E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)" I have no idea how to get rid of it. If you have any idea I'd be most welcome, though I guess you have more urgent and important things to do. Thanks again. Have a nice day.
