I had this when updating the OS the last time. I disabled extras-testing
and extras-devel, and the upgrade & app install went through fine. Like
you, I had lots of space on root - I think there is something wrong with
the space requirements calculation since PR1.

I believe that there is a maemo bug open about this issue - IIRC I added
a comment after having the issue.

Cheers,
Dave.
