i'm low on space. i know it. but i already have all the files needed to emerge a package, so why is emerge telling me: >>> Emerging (1 of 1) app-editors/emacs-23.3-r2 !!! Insufficient space to store emacs-23.3a.tar.bz2 in /usr/portage/distfiles !!! Insufficient privileges to use remaining space. !!! You may set FEATURES="-userfetch" in /etc/make.conf in order to fetch with !!! superuser privileges. * emacs-23.3a.tar.bz2 RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ... [ ok ] full emerge info is here: https://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=289575
This is fixed in git: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/portage.git;a=commit;h=79589ca29ecdbfafbc50b0899a51ce3f4eba1857
This is fixed in 2.1.10.27 and 2.2.0_alpha67.
