[arch-general] yaourt - tmpfs error: No space left on device

Salutations, I just looked at yaourt's yaourtrc and it's clear that it's storing its temporary files in /tmp. Building with yaourt means building in tmpfs which would for large compilation jobs can exhaust the tmpfs file system. Either extend the size of /tmp by specifying a larger size when mounting in /tmp (using fstab or just command line) or set a different direcotry via yaourt --tmp temporary directory. This should really be posted to the AUR mailing list since it's an AUR issue. I hope this helps.

[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ grep tmp /etc/fstab #tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nodev,nosuid,size=3G 0 0 It's commented out, but I once had to use it and it solved the issue for me.

Specifying tmpfs in /etc/fstab allows you to dictate how large the ramdisk is, but unless you explicitly stop systemd from mounting /tmp in RAM that's where it will go. -- A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. - Douglas Adams
