One more thing. Some readers were suggesting I need 8 or so GB for

That's a LOT of space. 9gbs of free space should be enough tho.
15Gbs if you use debug.
Perhaps 9GB "should" be enough. But 16GB is needed. And eix confirms
that I don't have debug

I got what I posted from the ebuild. This is the path and what it expects:
root@fireball / # cat
/usr/portage/app-office/libreoffice/libreoffice-3.4.99.1-r1.ebuild |
grep DISK
use debug && CHECKREQS_DISK_BUILD="15G" ||
CHECKREQS_DISK_BUILD="9G"
root@fireball / #
If I read that correctly, 9Gbs of free space should be enough. Note
that is FREE space not the size of the partition. It doesn't actually
need that much in most cases but how much depends on USE flags and
such. The devs take what is the maximum it could take and make it look
for at least that much. Nobody wants to get that about 90% compiled to
run out of space.
If yours is looking for more than that then I would think it is
something outside the ebuild that is causing a issue. While it does
take a lot of space at times, I have never seen it take 16Gbs. I have
portages work directory on tmpfs and it never gives me a error and I
only have 16Gbs of ram.
