Description Attila Stehr 2015-04-08 13:24:19 UTC

portage checks if there is enough disk space for all packages to emerge.
If the space for a single (or more) package(s) is not enought nothing is emerged at all.
IMO --keep-going should (as usualy) make emerge build all packages but that which needs more space. 
E.g. this happens when libreoffice is among the packages to be updated.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
# create and mount a 2 GB ramdisk
PORTAGE_TMPDIR="<mountpoint>" emerge -vuUND @world

Actual Results:  
 * Space constrains set in the ebuild were not met!
 * The build will most probably fail, you should enhance the space
 * as per failed tests.
 *
 * ERROR: app-office/libreoffice-4.4.2.2::gentoo failed (pretend phase):
 *   Build requirements not met!


Expected Results:  
* if requirements are not met just skip that package, not all

Portage 2.2.18 (python 2.7.9-final-0, default/linux/amd64/13.0/desktop/kde, gcc-4.9.2, glibc-2.20-r2, 3.13.6-gentoo x86_64)
