I've built this package once and had the same issues as you. Simplest solution is to set BUILDDIR to a (existing) directory in your hard disk (not in the RAM). For example, $ BUILDDIR=/home/myself/build makepkg -s I believe yaourt honors the BUILDDIR environment variable, if you insist in using it. If not, search for a tmp option in its man page.
