Bug#435069: http method doesn't cleanly handle out-of-space errors
Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.8.3
Followup-For: Bug #435069
The bug still exists in my version of apt. If there is no space on device, apt-get update prints:

There is no way to guess from this output that there is no space. So, please, print "no space left" instead.
