Hi Adam

There are two parts to installing GCompris. Installation of GCompris in
Gnome by rpm and installation of the .xo wrapper. The Sugar standard was
that activities are responsible for installing their dependencies; however,
this has been blurred in recent releases. In any case, it is possible that
your process using yum does a double install. Check the size of the
installed Sugar wrapper. Look at /home/olpc/Activities/Gcompris.activity
(or whatever it is called) and try du -h Gcompris.activity to check its
size.

This weekend, GCompris was instsalled on 240 XO-1.5 with 2GB storage with
no problem.


Thanks Tony.

I'll work on this Tuesday onwards, also with Nathan's many similar
experiences to guide me hopefully :)

The following creates 3 Sugar activity icons, on OLPC OS 13.2.8 on an XO-4
laptop, within 30min:

   - Terminal -> su -> "yum install gcompris" -> GCompris-0.31.xo
   - Terminal -> su -> "yum install tuxmath" -> TuxMath-3.1.xo
   - run TuxPaint-6.2.xo

The 3 files ending in .xo are tiny wrappers from Nathan Riddle, run from a
USB stick visible in Sugar's Journal, to create the activity icons within
Sugar's ring (Home View).

Unfortunately on a fresh 13.2.8 on XO-1 I'm stuck out of the gate.  First
Terminal -> su -> "yum install gcompris" failed with the following error
about an hour later:

   At least 52MB more space needed on the / filesystem.

Strange as "df -h" showed 89MB available on / and there had been 255MB free
on the fresh OS, for a 94M application whose installed size is "139M" but
Ok.

So I tried changing /etc/fstab 's /tmp entry from 50m to 200m per George
Hunt's suggestion, then rebooting ("df -h" confirms 200MB available on
/tmp) then I re-ran Terminal -> su -> "yum install gcompris".  The error
about 30min later is:

   At least 53MB more space needed on the / filesystem.

So I tried changing /etc/fstab 's /var/tmp entry from 50m to 200m per
Sebastian Silva's suggestion, while reducing /tmp back down from 200M to
50m, then rebooting ("df -h" confirms both) then re-ran Terminal -> su ->
"yum install gcompris".  The error about 30min later remains:

   At least 52MB more space needed on the / filesystem.

What should I try next?  (Apologies it must be something simple I'm
overlooking, as Nathan Riddle and others have GCompris working very
decently on XO-1!)
