upgrading.dbk: small improvement to text about check for free disk
The space needs to account for the unpackaged files as well as the download (This whole paragraph is much longer than it needs to be in my view - a shorter paragraph could be much clearer imo. But trying to not to change too much at this stage to avoid retranslations)

i started from https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=992345 which i understood to say that you need to account for both the numbers when deciding if you can upgrade: i definitely did not understand this from the previous text (it might even be the difference between me being able to even attempt the next upgrade or having to reinstall/repartition - if i have misunderstood then i would be relieved of course!)

I wonder if we should get an authoritative answer. We need to be sure here about what we are saying. I.e. which things does
apt
check for and warn against? One thing that caused me lots of failed upgrades is that sometimes an upgrade triggers two initramfs generations, which (in my case) happen in a small/boot
partition. A kernel upgrade is going to happen during upgrade.added 8 commits
