>Description:
Efforts to 'make package' yeild a 'not enough space on
destination drive'.
ktrace reveals that the installer makes drivespace decisions
by statfs'ing /root, which was pulled out of /etc/passwd.
Can't fathom why, though; I would have expected $PREFIX to
be checked...
>How-To-Repeat:
'make package' when you only have a 50M root partition. :)
>Fix:
A workaround: set root's HOME to a roomy drive:
env HOME=/usr make package
