After running for a few hours, it died citing lack of disk space. The filesystem has approximately 80GB available. How much disk space is required when making a release? A gig or 2 I recall, (each of src/ & obj/ I recall is ~ 600M then there's a chroot, so same again, but a few gig should be sufficient. 80G is more than enough, You must have some partiton that overflowed, maybe /tmp or /var. If you cant find what, just run eg touch ~//df.log #!/bin/csh while (1) df >> ~/df.log sleep 300 end & then start release again, the log will show where its getting eaten However I seem to recall some env var that allows piorts/ to be called in too Now ports/distfiles alone is maybe 100 Gig or so ... so avoid ports/ Sorry to be imprecise, I havent rolled a release for months, though I used to do it very frequently.
