After installing pacman packages (last one was ‘ungoogled-chromium’) my root partition of 20GB is completly full. Now I can’t update new packages.

My partition structure is: root (20GB) /home (470GB) swap (10GB)

How can I delete the garbage that is piling up in my root, and how to prevent it from happening again.

    Any particular reason why you have root so small and an dedicated /home partition?

      Because you don’t need to dd your entire /home partition to a drive, wipe your system drive, then dd your /home back.
