The packages in > question are android-studio-system and android-ndk. Do you have space somewhere else ? One way would be - Find a directory that 1. takes a lot of space and 2. can be moved to some alternate location without affecting the system, e.g. videos or audio files. Or anything that is required only after booting. - Copy it to some alternate location, e.g. an external USB disk. - Delete the original, and replace it by a symlink. - Add the new volume to your /etc/fstab (or mount it manually after login).
