[Comment 1 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2004-04-22 12:53:20 UTC]

Can you reproduce this without NFS?

[Comment 2 Andy Walker 2004-04-22 13:05:55 UTC]

Unfortunately, that's not possible.  There isn't enough space on the drive for the dist packages AND the unpacked source.  I am using NFS for this reason ('s a laptop).  Could it have something to do with NFS?  I don't really see how, but...

[Comment 3 Andy Walker 2004-04-23 19:29:02 UTC]

Similar problem posted in forum almost a year ago.  No resolution, of course.

Please stop adjusting the priority flag.  It is not used to rank bugs by the XFree team, and simply creates extra mail in an already heavy stream of bug reports.  Coming back to the bug with further relevant information as you've done, however, is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your understanding.

Set PORT_LOGDIR in make.conf to get a full compilation log and attach it here, please.

Apologies, here it is for the last time, I swear.

[Comment 10 Andy Walker 2004-04-28 22:37:34 UTC]

Found an external usb harddrive and mounted /var/tmp on it.  The build went flawlessly.

Unless something was changed, this is indeed an nfs-related problem.  While this bug may warrant further investigation, my system currently works, so I leave it up to the bug wranglers.

[Comment 11 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2004-04-28 22:53:41 UTC]

Reassigning to NFS maintainers.

[Comment 12 SpanKY 2004-10-07 20:17:00 UTC]

does it work if you mount with nfs over tcp ?
