Hi folks I did some checks on the intermediate space requirements, especially the build directory and ccache dirs. The ability to use ccache is currently the limiting factor to do the snapshots in the current fashion. All checks are done with the default powerpc64 image. No debugging info: - build directory: 300MiB - ccache: 50MiB Full debugging info - build directory: >> 2GiB - ccache: 400MiB Only image debugging info: - build directory: 1,6GiB - ccache: 110MiB Building with full debugging would push the linux-2.6 package right on top of the space requirements list by effectively using factor 10 of the current space. I'm unsure if the normal buildd-infrastructure could hold up to this. Building only the image with debugging information, which should be enough for most usage, would be an option, as it only takes about factor five.[1] Bastian [1]: Even this would currently make it impossible to build snapshots in the current setup, because the used machine have no additional free space. -- Klingon phaser attack from front!!!!! 100% Damage to life support!!!!
