[Bug 1833610] Re: minimum disk space recommendation is too small

[Brian Murray]

I also tested installing an Ubuntu 18.04 system using the original (no
point release) 18.04 iso file. I installed with a 5 GB root partition
(I'd used something smaller earlier and it never booted), then ran
update-manager and was presented with a dialog indicating I didn't have
enough free space to install the updates.

  minimum disk space recommendation is too small

Bug description:
  I tested installing Eoan with an iso dated 20190606 and setup the
  minimum recommended partition size (5.6 GB I believe). After the
  installation completed and I rebooted I was immediately presented with
  a dialog indicating there was a lack of free space. There was only 74M
  of free space and it seems likely that updates of debs and snaps will
  fail, let alone trying to install anything extra.
