We need a proper space expectation for the resulting packages. My
current one shows about 300MiB per flavour and therefor about 10GiB of
mirror space.

Per flavour. We had up to 8 in the past per architecture. So the build
needs up to 30GiB of space.

Currently I think about disabling that for any non-release build. Then
it will only affect the normal buildds.
