Hello, I recently was given a warning that / has only a low amount of space left, although my system less than half full.
Here is the current output of df -h:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 10M 276K 9.8M 3% /dev
/dev/sda3 9.4G 8.8G 152M 99% /
shm 2.0G 140K 2.0G 1% /dev/shm
/dev/sda2 92M 20M 68M 23% /boot
/dev/sda6 31G 3.0G 27G 11% /home
I basically followed the beginner's guide when partitioning. Is this a problem? Should I repartition some of /home's space onto / ?

You could probably gain some space back by clearing out the old packages from your pacman cache (pacman -Sc).

Thanks, that seemed to clear up ~14%. For the long run is repartitioning suggested?

I would say that it's pretty low disk space.
Partitioning is a personal thing, it depends on how much you install. Some need only 5 GB, some need e.g. 40 GB.

Yeah, I kind of just followed the wiki, but I should have probably doubled the size of /

try running du on the folders in /
du -a path/to/folder | sort -n -r | head -n 10
check logs files too as they sometimes take up a lot of room
