The way I've worked around a lack of space in /usr before (I now make it a 5GB LVM partition on any new installs so I don't need to worry about it and can make it bigger if needed later) was to move a "big" directory like /usr/share to another partition (e.g. /opt/usr-share) and then add a symlink back in: /usr/share -> /opt/usr-share That way, /usr gets more space but everything that needs to look for files in /usr/share can still find them there.
