@Glenn Kasten (First of all, I don't know why only the 'reply all' option is available!)
Thanks for you reply, I had checked the article that you mentioned, but as you said: "*Are you finding that it actually needs more free disk space than the amount listed?*" *Me*: Well, it doesn't seem that it is wanting more disk space, but allow me to clarify again from my starting message: "...disk's space is getting nearly full because of these 'tmp_pack_...' files ... deleting them will not solve my problem completely, as, when I have to download Android's source again, these files will start getting accumulated again, but as I have to pause downloading the source because of Internet data getting finished, so I also wanted to know if it is possible to pause downloading the source, then how to do it?" "*On the other hand, if the amount listed is correct and your machine just doesn't have that much free space,* *really the only solution is to create more free space, for example by adding another larger drive.*" *Me*: Well, till I use the existing 'tmp_pack_...' files to extract source code [which I don't know how], I am not starting to download the source again, because, as I said: "...I have to pause downloading the source because of Internet data getting finished, so I also wanted to know, if it is possible to pause downloading the source, then how to do it?", because I think that, CTRL + C is not pausing the 'repo sync' command, `n that these 'tmp_pack_...' files are the result of this 'pausing'. So, can you help me with that? thanks, waiting for you help.
