Actually i had codeblocks installed and then i was installing eclipse and i got a 'disk space "/" 99% used' and eclipse wasn't installed so i deleted the files and still its harder for me to install new software as the disk space "/" shoots to 99% as soon as iI install any new software.
It looks like you have 1.7gig free on a 10gig drive.
This.
It is not impossible to run a GUI with so little space, but one needs to be careful about what one installs. Snaps are probably right out, and cross-platform bloatware like codeblocks.
Your other thread suggests that your /home is significantly larger? Maybe you need to re-partition? IMHO a separate $HOME is not required.
