Softupdates doesn't have the smarts to stall a request for space that could be fulfilled with a pending delete. Alternatively, get a bigger slash (big pita, I know). Might want to expand /usr while you are at it, since the PITA to expand both is the same as the pita to expand one. Alternatively, I think I've had success with make installworld INSTALL="sync && install" which causes a lot of syncs to happen, which causes softupdates to effectively be disabled. And slows things WAY down. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
