Re: device space problem

delete stuff to free disk space maybe?
or start the compilation on another disk with more free space?
compiling may use a lot of space....

Re: device space problem

Move the PKGBUILD into another partition, with more free space. Then cd into the folder where you just put the PKGBUILD and issue:

makepkg PKGBUILD

Re: device space problem

yep that what I've been doing. this happens on smaller apps too. I have to reboot to build plus 14GBs is more than enough to compile a kernel.
I've don't it with 4GBs...

Re: device space problem

You'll still need /tmp afaik where stuff can get stored. And that's on your crammed, 93% full, root partition.

Re: device space problem

I noticed that so I emptied my /tmp and trying the build again. 93% full with 14GB left. would that make a difference??
This just started a few days ago. my disk is full because of music and movies. As I mentioned eralier, I've had the disk full to only 4GBs left and still no issue with building small or large apps.
