In fact, I have a 38GB disk on my laptop. My mistake was that I assumed that
gentoo was not so space-consuming. Now I'll have to make some modifications,
redo my partitions.
805Mb is not much but re-partitioning might not be the only answer if most
of your system is installed already.
Look for PORTAGE_TMPDIR and DISTDIR in your /etc/make.conf. Point them
to directories that are on a different partition. You can do the same for
your PORTDIR (resync and delete the old tree after this).
app-admin/localepurge can also save you some space.
