Product: urpmi
Component: urpmi
Summary: No space left in /var make it "crash"
Version: 4.0-9mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: ASSIGNED
Severity: trivial
Priority: P2

ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
That's a little stupid but when installing the 9.0,I created a small /var
partition (100Mo or even less).
During the installation with the only 2 first GPL CDs all get Ok.
After I try to make the 3thd Cd a the source of package, rpmdrake freeze. His
window didn't update.
I try several times with the same result.
I was looking at the log, and didn't find something interesting.
some commands later, i type "df" (don't remember why ;) and saw that /var was
filled to 100%. I make it bigger and all get OK !
So this bug report is just an kind of "feature" ask to check that /var was not
total full before adding a new package source.

This is a known issue, but it can easily workarounded (I suppose here) by using
existing hdlist instead of building new ones.
Just use --distrib options after inserting the first Mandrake Linux CD with
urpmi.addmedia and all known media will be used. Or use 'with' option to add
each medium one after another.
