Not fixed in the sense that if you already have the bad symlink and the docs that take up 15 extra GB, then that symlink will remain, and the disk usage will still be bad, until you manually remove the symlink and do 'make doc-clean'. Should Sage do that clean-up for everyone? (It can be more targeted, just removing the bad symlink and the bad files/directories in the documentation.) > On Thu, Nov 8, 2018 at 4:24 PM John H Palmieri > wrote: > > > > > > > > On Thursday, November 8, 2018 at 7:37:12 AM UTC-8, Erik Bray wrote: > >> > >> On Wed, Oct 31, 2018 at 8:07 PM John H Palmieri > wrote: > >> > > >> > I thought that this bug was fixed, but it has reappeared: the > directory 'SAGE_ROOT/local/share/doc/sage' may be taking up many gigabytes > of space.

Re: [sage-devel] Re: recommendation: delete local/share/mathjax/mathjax, run make doc-clean, then make
It might have been a bug in sagenb 1.1.0, fixed by Jeroen in https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/26641 Basically, sagenb 1.1.0 came in a tarball with mathjax, was my fault in part (and in part a deficiency in the procedure to create sagenb releases, hopefully fixed by now).

It happened to me with three different computers, at least one of which I don't use that much for Sage development, so either I got unlucky or it is easy for this error to reappear. To what extent should Sage try to catch the error and repair it if it occurs, or should it be up to individual users to notice and fix it on their own? I would suggest that if a bug in Sage is responsible for using up an extra 15 GB of disk space, then Sage should try to detect whether that disk space is being used (for example, by checking for the presence of the symlink) and either deleting all of the bad stuff, or at least warning the user that it's there.

I thought that this bug was fixed, but it has reappeared: the directory 'SAGE_ROOT/local/share/doc/sage' may be taking up many gigabytes of space. Please check to see if you're affected. See also #26612 for a possible fix.

Thanks for sharing. This bug is already fixed, but if you did a build on the first machine with a version where the bug did exist (specifically in the sagenb package) then it will persist until and unless you delete $SAGE_LOCAL/share/mathjax and reinstall the mathjax package. Otherwise you'll just never see it in the first place. > On Thursday, August 23, 2018 at 10:13:11 PM UTC+2, John H Palmieri wrote: >> >> I found that my Sage documentation directory was taking up 15GB of hard >> drive space, because of a bug (which I think has been fixed, but I don't >> remember where).
