and it is really worth to declare that this thing needs about 2 GB to build

I would assume that most people building chromium have more than 2 GB free; that's really not a very large footprint.

The exception would probably be people building on tmpfs, but then we have the memory issue to deal with as well.

I'm not opposed to adding a disk space check, but I don't really see a significant benefit to it either.

FWIW the background: - at my tinderbox I spent 8 GB for a tmpfs for /var/tmp/portage - shared among - currently - 5 chroot images. So I' do care for packages using significantly more than 2 GB.
